DStv Premiership outfit Royal AM be in even more hot water should it lose its appeal in the case relating to its former player.
Shauwn “MaMkhize” Mkhize’s football club, Royal AM, is eagerly awaiting the verdict from the Court of Arbitration for Sports in their transfer ban appeal case relating to striker Samir Nurkovic.Thwihli Thwala, as Royal AM is affectionately called, is serving a Fifa transfer ban after unfairly dismissing Nurkovic – whom it was ordered to pay R12 million.
After his contract was terminated, Nurkovic turned to Fifa in an attempt to recover R12 million in compensation from Royal AM. When MaMkhize’s club failed to pay the Serbian player, the Switzerland-based CAS – the highest international court for the resolution of sports-related disputes — handed the club a transfer ban.“The matter was heard on 13 May 2024 if I’m correct, we put a good case, it’s up to those three arbitrators to come with the ruling.
“They requested an extended date for rendering the arbitration award, to the 15 of July, which is next week, meaning anytime we might receive the arbitral award from CAS,” Thobejane said. reported last year that the club was slapped with a South African Revenue Service bill to the tune of R37 million in October.
In addition, MaMkhize is embroiled in a tax scandal and is at risk of losing 13 luxury vehicles under a family trust called Shandi Trust.
