Highlanders halt fan-led player donations, directs support through official channels

HIGHLANDERS have moved to bring all financial assistance for players under its official structures following a fan-led initiative that saw supporters raising funds for the club’s players through captain Darlington Mukuli’s personal bank account.

The initiative, which gained traction on social media platform Facebook this week, was launched by concerned Bosso supporters seeking to cushion players who have gone for weeks without receiving their salaries and winning bonuses.

Supporters were encouraged to deposit money into Mukuli’s bank account, with the funds meant to be shared among the players as they continue to grapple with the club’s financial challenges.
