adminMamelodi Sundowns team-mates.
Mushekwi then went on to play a brief role in Sundowns’ 3-2 defeat at the hands of Moroka Swallows in an MTN8 semi-final, second leg tie at Dobsonville stadium last Sunday.
The striker rose from the substitutes’ bench to grab Sundowns’ second goal but it remains to be seen whether it was his parting gift to Johan Neeskens’ side.
Now his agent, Ralph Nkomo, is currently in the process of sorting out the final parts of the deal with Furth before flying into South Africa to start discussions with Sundowns.
Nkomo told Soccer Laduma that he was “hopeful of concluding a deal’’.
“I’m waiting for the President, we’re hoping to conclude things this morning and I’m hoping that Sundowns won’t stand in the boy’s way. I don’t think they will.”
It is thought that Mushekwi’s deal could be completed as early as tomorrow, should Furth offer the R10 million that Sundowns are after.
Meanwhile Bidvest Wits have released their Zimbabwean goalkeeper Energy Murambadoro from his contract. Murambadoro has been deemed a surplus to requirements at Wits after the Students signed Jackson Mabokgwane from Mamelodi Sundowns recently.
Club chief executive Jose Ferreira confirmed that they have parted ways with the big goalkeeper but assured defender Tlou Molekwane that he still has a future with the club.
Molokwane, who joined Wits from Kaizer Chiefs during the off-season, was also said to be on his way out at Wits.
“Tlou is not going anywhere and is still our player,” Ferreira told KickOff.com.
The Students announced the signing of Terror Fanteni and Mzikayise Mashaba yesterday and so far have signed 16 players for the new season, including Bryce Moon,
Matthew Pattison, Tinashe Nengomasha, Thomas Sweswe and Calvin Kadi.
Ferreira did not rule out the possibility of making more signings before the transfer window deadline tomorrow. — Sports Reporter/Soccer Laduma/Kickoff.com.
