TS Galaxy owner Tim Sukazi says it’s time to celebrate because the purchase of Highlands Park’s Premier Soccer League (PSL) status is virtually done.
Reports on Monday suggested the deal could be in danger of failing,
but Sukazi has assured that the Lions of the North’s sale is done and
only needs to be ratified by the PSL executive committee.
“This is a big achievement for me and the millions of SA Football
fans who want something different in our local football, those who want
fresh and new ideas,” Sukazi told SAFM.
“The deal is done, it’s signed and sealed. I know there was a tweet
yesterday that the deal is off. But some people are sensational and like
to create confusion and stories without checking the facts. The PSL
letter is clear, they will approve the deal. We can start celebrating.”
He added: “It’s not true that there is a consortium behind this deal.
The going rate of a PSL status is around R60 million and to say I needed some
assistance is disrespect.
“The Galaxy status has now been sold to Lunga Ncwana who previously sold me Cape Town All Stars. It’s going back to Cape Town.”
