BFA hits back over failed deals

Friday, February 08, 2019

The Botswana Football Association (BFA) has washed its hands clean over the failed transfer of three local players to South African side, TS Galaxy. Township Rollers’ Gape Mohutsiwa, Mosha Gaolaolwe and Jwaneng Galaxy attacker, Thero Setsile, saw their moves to TS Galaxy go up in smoke at the last minute, with BFA accused of failing to process the paperwork just before the January 31 deadline.

BFA marketing and public relations officer, Tumo Mpatane said the clubs should have informed the association about the late deals as it was the South African, and not the local window that closed on January 31.

Therefore, he said there was no reason for a BFA officer to stay at the office, unless if the clubs had informed the association.
