Hunt rubbishes reports about financial challenges at Wits

Bidvest Wits coach Gavin Hunt says the club is not going through financial difficulties.


Hunt was responding to reports that Wits were struggling financially that is the reason why they were not spending money in the recent transfer periods, preferring to sign free agents.

“Well, I have got what I got. Isn’t it? We bought one player. We are fighting and we are doing very well with the players that I got… with those 21 players. Everybody else has 35 players but I’ve got 21 players,” Hunt told the media.

“No, we are not struggling financially. The policy was not to buy any players. So, that was the policy this season. Right now, we are second on the log with two games in hand. We should go top (of the PSL log),” added Hunt.
