This is not the first time this has happened in the Premier Soccer League, Orlando Pirates had the same agreement with Chippa United last season for Goodman Mosele, who was on loan. Sundowns also had the same agreement with SuperSport United for Ricardo Goss.
Both teams haven’t had a good week after Sundowns played to a goalless draw with DRC side AS Maniema Union in the opening match of the CAF Champions League.
Meanwhile, Sekhukhune suffered a shock 3-1 defeat to TS Galaxy in the Betway Premiership.
