GU axe Zim goalkeeper over poor performance

Friday, August 22, 2014

Gaborone United have parted ways with newly signed goalkeeper, Philip Nhete over poor performance just two games into the season. However, the two parties look likely to be embroiled in a bitter war with the player over unfair dismissal.

The former Dynamos goalkeeper had a terrible time in the 3-2 loss to Notwane in GU’s opener at the UB Stadium a fortnight ago.

After the setback, it emerged that new coach, Rahman Gumbo had been against the signing of the ex-BMC man.

The coach had a short stint with the club and is understood to be an admirer of the young goalkeeper.
