“We are negotiating. For example, with Keagan Dolly, the situation is a problem in France, because the country’s regulations say, when coming back from Africa, a 14-day quarantine is needed upon arrival,” explained Doctor Thulani Ngwenya as per Kickoff.

“So, that makes it unfavourable for the club to release the player, and that’s the kind of situations we are faced with. With Bongani [Zungu], we are still negotiating and it’s quite advanced, to be honest. There is a high likelihood that Bongani could join us in Sudan.

“But to be honest, the ones that haven’t arrived will not be coming to South Africa, so the next negotiation now is for them to come and join us in Sudan.”
