“I got all the support that I needed overseas, I won’t lie. I had my mistakes, I am only human after all,” Mabizela told SAfm.
“The honest truth is I was ill-disciplined and it has cost me not only in Europe but also around SA.
“My discipline has always been an issue I can’t run away from it, it is the honest truth.
“There was a lot that happened, a lot was expected and I didn’t live up to the expectations.”
Mabizela also revealed that he has officially retired from football.
