However, in an interview with Lesedi FM, Williams said he only read the reports about Pirates’ interest in his services in the media.

“Pirates never contacted me or my agency. I only read those reports in the media but I never spoke to anyone from Pirates,” said Williams.

“I also don’t think they spoke to my team (SuperSport United) because they would have told me.”

Williams recently extended his stay at SuperSport to June 2023.
