From earning a mere R6,000 to getting R60,000 per month, Andriamirado"Dax" Adrianaminana thought he had secured a dream move to South Africa.The Madagascar international will have to part with more than R300,000 of his riches to pay his former club Fosa Juniors, after he and Kaizer Chiefs were found guilty by Fifa of a"unilateral breach of contract" when he moved to SA in June 2018.
Sowetan has seen the 15-page Fifa ruling, which was made by a five-member committee headed by Englishman Geoff Thompson last week. While Chiefs maintained their stance that the Malagasy league was not professional and thus Dax could not have a valid contract, the Absa Premiership side proceeded to make an offer of US$25,000 for his services."Fosa declined the offer as it was way below expectations," the Fifa ruling reads.
Chiefs, however, upped their offer to €32,546 , despite disputing that the player had a contract with Fosa, and arguing his signature on a deal that was to expire in October this year, was forged. But Fifa ruled the fact that Chiefs made an offer was"an acknowledgement that indeed he had a contract" with Fosa.
