But as far as I\u2019m concerned, Elmo signed a contract of over two years with the club and that contract remains very active. But if the club wishes to terminate the contract, they know what channels to follow and are very much aware of what happens in such instances. But like I said, Elmo still has a binding contract with Sekhukhune,\u201d said Kahiriri.<\/p>\n<p>He also shared with this publication that Sekhukhune United at one point also wanted to loan out Kambindu to GladAfrica Championship side TS Sporting, but that the deal fell through and the player had since been with Sekhukhune.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut let\u2019s wait and see how the situation will go. We remain hopeful about Elmo\u2019s future, and we equally remain open to mature talks with Sekhukhune on the way forward regarding the player\u2019s contract.\u201d In its report, SoccerLaduma said Kambindu failed to impress coach Makhubedu during the various trainings, and a decision was then taken to offload the industrious young Namibian striker.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKambindu who was expected to play for Sekhukhune United has been stopped from training with the team. He is leaving the club as coaches felt that he wasn\u2019t different to what they already had in the team,\u201d reported SoccerLaduma.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Sekhukhune have also decided against signing former Bloemfontein Celtic youngster Tumelo Mangweni after the midfielder spent some time training with the team.<\/p>\n<p>Mangweni is one of the former Celtic players who were affected by the changes that took place at Royal AM in January and is currently a free agent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
