The long standing dispute between Free State-based First Division clubs Carara Kicks and African Warriors over the services of Zambian defender Clive Hachilensa was settled on Wednesday night when he was fined R50 000 and declared a Kicks’ player.
Like Siphelele Mthembu of Orlando Pirates, the former Free State Stars’ skipper signed contracts with both teams disputing his services. However, there was no indication as to whether the fine was suspended, as was the case with Mthembu.
KickOff.com reported in July that the 29-year-old international had signed for Warriors quoting club director Isaac Tshabalala, but two weeks later the player was reported to have signed for Carara Kicks.
“We even lodged the contract that we have with him with the PSL, who accepted it on the day that we filed it,” Jabu Khumalo, Warriors’ owner told this website at the time.
“Clive signed a pre-contract with us after he agreed on terms, but I suppose he then took our terms to bargain for a new deal with Carara. But the reality is that he signed for us first,” Khumalo said at the time.
A Carara source countered that they had already sorted out his work permit and facilitated his international clearance from Finland.
Meanwhile, the DC on Wednesday also fined Jacob Sakala, who coached Garankuwa United before they were relegated, R50 000 for using abusive language towards a match official.
