Thidiela lashes out at soccer agent over Ntshangase

Black Leopards chairman David Thidiela has lambasted soccer agent Mandla Mthembu to abstain from distributing lies about Siphelele Ntshangase’s future.

The well decorated midfielder Ntshangase has been very instrumental at both national and club level.

Mthembu had previously told KickOff.com that; Orlando Pirates are closing in on the Bafana Bafana midfielder.

“I don’t know who appointed this Mthembu person as the spokesperson for Black Leopards. I have not even met this Mandla Mthembu person, but he has the nerve to go around spreading lies about my players and club,” Thidiela told the website.

 “We are tired of fly-by-night soccer agents who just mushroom all over the show once a player becomes prominent.”

The 22-year-old midfielder has been linked with a move to either Pirates or Sundowns.

 “Where was he when we got this boy from the farms in KwaZulu-Natal? This thing he is talking about (transfer) won’t happen. Over my dead body,” said Thidiela.
