Mamelodi Sundowns forward Yannick Zakri has been caught offside after he allegedly got married in his home country Ivory Coast, behind the back of his South African lover.

Zakri's girlfriend Khwezi Shengu said she was so angry after hearing about the wedding that she immediately video-called him to confront him about the wedding story.

"He brushed me aside by saying he was stressing about his mother's health. He left here saying his mother was very sick ... When he came back, I was waiting for him in a fighting mode at his apartment in Kempton Park. But instead, we ended up having sex. I did not interrogate him as planned because the sex was just so good."

Zakri confirmed knowing Shengu but declined to talk about their relationship.

"I'm with my wife now, she is lying. In fact I don't want to talk about her," said Zakri.
