Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>19-year-old Dynamos winger Bill Antonio\u2019s trial stint in Belgium is now in doubt due to differences between the player\u2019s agent, Placcedes Jefferson, and his father, Nowell Antonio.<\/p>\n

Bill was invited for trials by Pro League side KV Mechelen for assessment from 1 to 30 April this year but he is yet to get the visa and other necessary documentation for the trip.<\/p>\n

Speaking to The Herald on Monday, Bill\u2019s Father, Nowell, said the people representing his son are not operating in good faith. He said:<\/p>\n

The people in Belgium called and said they wanted Bill for trials to see if he has the qualities that they would want.<\/p>\n

I feel this is a very good opportunity for Bill and as a father I can only encourage him to remain focused on his game, put in a lot of effort and give it a try because it\u2019s all about his career.<\/p>\n

But the issue now is that the people who are supposed to be fronting this are not operating in good faith and there is a danger that the boy could run into problems in the future.<\/p>\n

As a father, I am duty-bound to avoid that at all costs because I came a long way in supporting my son\u2019s education and his fledgling football career.<\/p>\n

\u2026 there are people waiting to manipulate his minor status. A registered UK-based intermediary had offered to assist because these people are not operating in good faith. But the agent is not playing ball.<\/p>\n
