“I am confident that during the course of this week we will finalise a deal for Manqoba,” he added.

“The majority of the phrases of the settlement have been agreed and it clearly it was troublesome for us, most likely harder for Mamelodi  Sundowns to convey it to finality as a result of we didn’t know what was taking place behind the scenes, and Mamelodi  Sundowns clearly knew that these discussions have been on-going with coach Rulani.

“I guess that’s why there has been this delay, I am hoping that, now that the dust is starting to settle, cause it’s a big change, we’ll finally put pen to paper and put all of this speculation aside,” concluded.
