TTM CEO Sello Chokoe Claims That Gustavo Paez Is Lying!
Paez insinuated that the Limpopo club have stopped him from leaving the country! He says he is waiting on a return ticket back to Venezuela.
TTM CEO Sello Chokoe Claims That Gustavo Paez Is Lying! He says that Paez is drowning from a pool of his own creation.
Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila CEO Sello Chokoe told KickOff that the striker lied about his contract situation in Venezuela.
“This boy told us the borders are opened on the 1st of December, he will be in South Africa looking for a team.
“If he can’t find a team until then he will leave in December. So now I am shocked when he says we are refusing to buy him a ticket. That is not true,” Chokoe exclaims!
“He is the one who left Venda saying he is going to Joburg to look for a team. He lied to us saying he has got a clearance when he did not have the clearance from the club.
“Remember with Chiefs what happened, they registered a player with a clearance from the Madagascar association.
“So, he sent me that clearance from the [Venezuelan] association and I said, ‘No, I’m not going to register you with the clearance from the association.’
“He still has a contract somewhere, so that’s why he doesn’t have his clearance certificate.
“The only obstacle here is him not having a clearance certificate from his previous team.
“If he had a clearance, we would have registered him by now. The one he has got; it is from the association of Venezuela not from the team.
“That’s what got Chiefs in trouble. Chiefs registered the player with a clearance from the Madagascar association, not from his team
“When we bought him a ticket to come this side, we did it with a return ticket. And his return ticket was for the 20th of December.
“So, he has a return ticket, it’s just a matter of bringing the date closer if he wants to leave as soon as tomorrow.
“There’s no need for us to buy him another ticket, he’s got it already. The return was for the 20th of December for the Christmas break.
“I don’t know anything about salaries; hence I’m saying he doesn’t have a contract with us. We terminated his contract when we realised that he has got another contract.
“That is the team that is going pay him, not us. Our contract was signed after he signed that one so it’s null and void.” Chokoe added.
