Ngezi Platinum woes deepen

FIFA has directed Zifa to implement an immediate transfer ban on former Castle Lager Premier Soccer League champions Ngezi Platinum Stars for failure to pay former assistant coach Bongani Mafu his dues.

Mafu was sacked by Ngezi Platinum Stars in 2022 together with head coach Benjani Mwaruwari and the two approached Fifa on grounds of unfair dismissal and they won their case.

Mafu was awarded US$196 750 last year in September and Mwaruwari, who made his plea a little later, was granted close to US$600 000.
