In May, Chiefs suspended Zuma over allegations that he came to training with hangover and smelling of alcohol from partying the previous night.

And this was the second time that Zuma was suspended by Chiefs after having been barred from all club-related activities in November 2021.

At the time, Zuma had just been released on bail following his alleged drink and driving arrest in Sandton.

Chiefs were set to part ways with Zuma in Janaury but the management gave him a second chance by lifting his suspension and allowing him back into the team.

Attacking midfielder Dumsani Zuma’s numerous disciplinary issues have led to the Club letting him go with a year still remaining on his contract.

This follows his latest appearance in front of the DC, which resulted in his dismissal as recommended by an independent authority. The 27-year-old only featured three times in 2021/22 for Chiefs.

Since joining from Bloemfontein Celtic in 2017, he has been suspended a number of times, including twice in one season. He was also sent to rehab and counselling in the season that just ended. Over five seasons, he played 100 matches (25 starts + 75 subs) and scored 13 goals.
