The Premier Soccer League (PSL) Disciplinary Committee has reportedly found Mamelodi Sundowns guilty for fielding defender Wayne Arendse in their 1-1 draw against Bidvest Wits.
Sundowns fielded the defender, who was not on the team sheet that day, after Thapelo Morena suffered an injury during the warm-up.
“In the first matter involving Mamelodi Sundowns and Wayne Arendse, the disciplinary committee found both the club and the player guilty of misconduct,” read the statement.
“This is after Mamelodi Sundowns fielded Mr Arendse whilst he was ineligible to play in the Absa Premiership fixture against Bidvest Wits on 7 October 2018.
“Sanction will be handed down once all the parties have made submissions to the disciplinary committee.”
