Kaizer Chiefs star Dumisani Zuma has returned back to training at Naturena after serving his suspension.
The midfielder made headlines for all the wrong reasons last year after he was arrested by traffic officers for drunk driving in November.
Zuma’s agent has provided a crucial update on the Kaizer Chiefs midfielder’s future with the club.
Forgiven and forgotten?
Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Dumisani Zuma has also returned to the training field at Naturena after months out in the cold following his arrest.
The midfielder was suspended by the club and placed in a rehabilitation program after he was arrested for drunk driving in November 2021.
“Zuma is back with the team. I saw him training with the rest of the squad on Monday. They have given him a lifeline to showcase his talent again.” a source told Sowetan regarding the Kaizer Chiefs star.
“He’s still going through the rehabilitation process. It looks like the club deducted a certain amount of money from his salary as a fine.’’
“Yes, he [Zuma] is training with the team again but I don’t think it’s for me to comment further when Kaizer Chiefs have published every step of the way. I am not at liberty to give more details,” his agent added.
Zuma suspended and fined by Glamour Boys late last year
“Kaizer Chiefs is disappointed to learn of the recent alleged conduct of Dumsani Zuma as reported in the media and has taken the decision to immediately suspend him from all Club activities pending an internal disciplinary hearing,” a club statement read in November 2021.
“His suspension is in the interests of all parties concerned and does not in itself carry any inference of guilt or prejudgement. The club will ensure the matter is resolved as quickly as reasonably possible.”
