“Msimango, his club will announce him,” he told iDiski Times.

“I could come out and say ‘we reached an agreement to a transfer with Kaizer Chiefs’… And with Buthelezi, it is the same thing. His new club will announce him accordingly.

“But these players won’t be returning to TS Galaxy next season. But I would like to leave the shine to their clubs, as opposed to us making announcements on behalf of their next destination.”
