Leopards have not signed Tlhone – Kerr

Black Leopards coach Dylan Kerr confirmed that the club is still assessing former Bidvest Wits and Maritzburg United defender Bokang Tlhone.


There were reports that Lidoda Duvha have already signed the defender that was released by Maritzburg earlier this year, however, Kerr has denied this.

“Which new player? We haven’t signed him. He’s trained twice, but nobody is going to sign. We’ve made ourselves clear about that until we either are in the NFD or PSL until we’re mathematically safe in the PSL nobody will be signing with this club,” Kerr was quoted as saying by Sport24.

“I’ve just arrived back from the UK, to find out that he was signed…apparently we signed this player, and as far as I’m concerned we’ve signed nobody. We haven’t signed anybody. I spoke to the management. He is here for me to have a look at him you know, again nothing has been decided until we know we are guaranteed of either staying in the PSL or being involved in the play-offs or relegated, which is not in our mind-sets.”
