Transfer talks or vacation? Reasons behind Bongani Zungu’s Turkey visit revealed

Former Mamelodi Sundowns star Bongani Zungu is making headlines against his Turkey visit amid Kaizer Chiefs links. The celebrated midfielder left Mamelodi Sundowns just two years after his return to local football.


 

However, Bongani Zungu’s exit from Mamelodi Sundowns made headlines. It shocked many who hoped his last dance would be in Mamelodi Sundowns jersey.

IS HE JOINING KAIZER CHIEFS?
However, the free agent has been making headlines for barely a month after leaving the Brazilians. Bongani Zungu has since been linked with the Soweto giants Kaizer Chiefs.

Bongani Zungu is daid to be on the Amakhosi radar. Former Mamelodi Sundowns star Sello Mhlangu made it known that Bongani Zungu wouldn’t leave for a local team.

Despite his unknown reasons for exit, Mahlangu revealed that Bongani Zungu wouldn’t want anything less than what he was getting paid. He revealed that, due to financial implications, he doesn’t think the star would join Kaizer Chiefs.

“His next move after Sundowns should be going back to Europe. Him moving to Europe will also benefit Bafana Bafana. I don’t think he will move to the likes of Chiefs in terms of financial implications. At his age, he is not going to accept anything less than what he is currently paid,” said Mahlangu.
