Motsepe gives Tau blessing to play abroad

It is confidential, it is like when you buy a player and they ask how much did you pay, you have to be careful because you cause pressure in the dressing room when they hear that you paid so much for a player and the perception is that you are also playing him a huge salary as well.

The 23-year-old Tau has been earmarked with a move away from Chloorkop, and is said to have attracted interest from European sides. Motsepe has conceded that he is most likely to the Bafana Bafana international at the end of the season.

“I am going to lose players. There are about two good players who we would like to see moving on and play overseas,” said Motsepe.

“I would like Percy to play overseas, I want him to play there,” he added.

Sundowns will for the seconds time play Spanish giants FC Barcelona in an international friendly in celebration of the Nelson Mandela centenary.

On how much it will cost to bring stars such as Lionel Messi, Andries Iniesta, Luiz Suarez and the likes, the billionaire was coy in his reply.
