SuperSport United midfielder Sipho Mbule will not be leaving the club quite yet, according to his agent Mike Makaab.
Mbule’s name has been trending on Twitter claiming the 23-year-old will be unveiled as a new Kaizer Chiefs signing on Friday but Makaab has shot down that speculation saying his player is going nowhere.
In an interview carried by Gagasi FM Sport, Makaab said no deal was in place with any club that would see Mbule leaving SuperSport anytime soon.
“Sipho Mbule is contracted to SuperSport United on a long-term contract,” said Makaab.
“And out of absolute respect and honouring football contracts in the right way, any team that’s interested in his services, first and foremost, have to agree on transfer terms with SuperSport United.
“And only then can we, as an agency and Sipho’s representatives, step in,” he explained.
“So, I can categorically state that as we sit here now, there is no deal close to being finalized with any football club for Sipho Mbule,” concluded Makaab.
