Russia, China move for Mphela?
 

Katlego Mphela could still leave Mamelodi Sundowns

Russia, China move for Mphela?

Posted: 2012-02-02 10:57

Katlego Mphela may have missed out on a move to Queens Park Rangers during the January transfer window, but he may yet be leaving Mamelodi Sundowns in the near future.

Do you think Mphela should make a move? Have your say on Facebook HERE!

KickOff.com
has learnt that The Brazilians rejected three bids from overseas for the Bafana Bafana striker this past month, including one from Belgian side Standard Liege and another from an unnamed Turkish club.

The reason for the failed bids was because it did not meet Sundowns’ valuation of the 27-year-old; all the offers were for €1-million (R10-million), whereas the club wants closer to €1.7-million (R17-million).

Mphela’s business manager, Glyn Binkin, confirms the bids, and says that Sundowns were well within their rights to turn the bids down.

“Sundowns were not unreasonable; they have a certain valuation for Katlego and those bids did not meet it. That is totally understandable,” he tells KickOff.com.

“They are committed to giving Katlego his chance to play overseas. Last year [in June] they turned down a R15-million bid from Maccabi Haifa, though I’m sure if another offer like that comes in they might consider it.”

And Binkin says all is not yet lost for his client.

“I am currently working on something in Russia and China, where the transfer windows are still open. We are hopeful of getting something sorted but, if it doesn’t, Katlego is very much committed to his job at Sundowns.”

This talk of Queens Park Rangers is absolute rubbish from the media. Did QPR make a bid for Mphela? NO, so where the hell do they come up with a story like "Missed out on move to QPR"?. Keep to the facts please, we don't need this rubbish.

And now for the facts, Mphela career is finished. Not because of Sundowns, but because of Mphela himself. He signed a new contract with Sundowns, without informing him agent, and now he is crying to go to Europe. Our players are complete morons. He knew Sundowns has no track record of selling South Africans to Europe, but he signed the extension anyway. Complete moron.

Wandile : 2012-02-02 11:16

Mr Editor why is there so much info about amounts rejected by Downs whereas we did get told same when other players go trial or they are are being bidded for. Infact, why this infactuation ngama player wethu nou die las?

This is a conceirted effort to sow divisions among the YELO SECHEBA and derail our YELO MACHINE from reaching it's unstopable destination: 2011/2012 Championship.

Sundoms are now Reject FC rejecting every Mphela's bid. they reject R15M and now the cow is worth R10M. Next season the cow will be worth R5M and then R0M and will go for free to Platinum stars. See we told you, all motsepe knows is umgodi wegolide, nothing else.

Champ "Superbrand": 2012-02-02 11:56

This cow is now being benched, maar why hold on to him? If Sundong is not about money bcause the have a lot of moola then why not take R10M and donate it to the poor and let the poor Mphela go!!!

leboyelo : 2012-02-02 17:06

If china can pay 20m for him y not, you pay for valuables not wait until they are free agents like shaba even crystal palace don't want to invest in him.

Totalfootball : 2012-02-02 17:16

I think he move will be more money making than football success.anyway its good for him,he must make as much money as he can?

roux : 2012-02-03 00:29

Pray 4 him

Mosala : 2012-02-03 06:03

Katlego as well as other players in the PSL must make overseas moves.This will do our national team the world of good.As for Sundowns turning those offers down,they are correct,why do u have to sell your player to an overseas team at a price that our local teams can match?I believe this ridiculous and undermining Mphela's quality.Bravo Sundowns.

brazilitto : 2012-02-03 07:51

Mphela is not for sale, he need to change. I am pleading with yellow nation as a whole to 4giv killer. He has been under pressure playing for banana banana.
Mphela price tag should be 4 million US Dollars

mahoota: 2012-02-03 08:08

mxm , , , i dnt care even if he can go to zimbabwe, but seriusly editor u guyz are playing wth us wth publishing sumthng dat u r nt sure abwt

Siyane dontez martins : 2012-02-03 08:48

For me as a supporter, I think we still need mphela at sundowns for the sake of the league tittle

 : 2012-02-04 06:59

He could still move be cause he is luck in scoring
