REVEALED: Why AmaZulu axed Konqobe

AmaZulu announced this week that they had terminated the contract of defender Ayabulela Konqobe.


Now it has been revealed that off-the-field issues cost defender his job at Usuthu.

Konqobe’s contract was terminated by AmaZulu last week after the two parties agreed to terminate.

According to The Sowetan, Konqole missed training sessions and lied about his whereabouts.

“He missed a number of training sessions last month. When he returned, he told the club that he was in Johannesburg to see his mother, who was sick. The trouble started when he produced a fake medical letter of his mother’s illness,” a source told the newspaper.

“Apparently he bought that letter, but the biggest mistake he made is that he did not check the dates to support his argument. The date written in the letter and the date he said his mother went to the doctor were not the same at all. After all this, he faced the club’s DC and the rest is history.”
