Cape Town - Mamelodi Sundowns' highly-paid striker Sibusiso Zuma won’t be part of the Sundowns team in the new season after being shown the door.

Even though Trott Moloto, who’s handling all the player movements at Sundowns, refused to comment on the matter, sources very close to the player’s agent let it slip to the Siya crew that the club is not intending to keep the player on the payroll in the new season. “He is leaving. The club has told us that they won’t keep him,” said our source!

“I’m not going to comment on that,” was all Moloto would say when asked about it.

The former Orlando Pirates striker joined the Chloorkop-based outfit from Arminia Bielefeld at the beginning of the season amid much fanfare, but he has failed to live up to expectations. Sundowns are expected to make the news official soon.
