Sello said media reports of Otladisa possibly leaving Gallants for Chiefs are nothing but an attempt ‘to do news hype’.

THERE IS NOTHING FOR OTLADISA… FOR NOW – SELLO

“Everybody just writes to do news hype. No, no — we are not into that. We want to build up our club as well.

“For now, there is nothing. Remember we still are placing building blocks here.

Sello told TimesLIVE

Sello, though, admitted that they could consider selling players, including Otladisa at the right price, but for now, their aim is to build a solid foundation at Gallants.

He added that no player is being sold at this point, including both Otladisa and Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo, saying what’s being reported in the media is ‘just stories’.

“And then it’s not that we won’t entertain the market at the right price. But for now, let’s allow us to build them, have quality, develop them and then maybe we would consider [selling players],” said Sello.
