Earlier this week, media reports surfaced that a number of Royal AM players had not been paid their salaries in full and, therefore, decided not to train until the issue is resolved.

Furthermore, the reports claimed that Royal AM players, about 60 of them, had to share rooms as the club couldn’t provide sufficient accommodation for them.

1. Our match with AmaZulu FC was cancelled due to medical issues with AmaZulu the team were having which I am not at liberty to discuss further but feel free to contact them.

2. 8 players were not able to receive payment due to issues with their contracts needing to be finalised. The matter is ongoing and being sorted hence we have personally called the union President to come and assist.

3. Players that are sharing rooms is out of choice not because we forced them to. They are friends and they asked to be put in the same room.

4. We are not responsible for housing players and their families. They are professional players who earn salaries and are liaible for their housing arrangements. We provide accommodation in-season when the team is camping at the base.

5. I know journalists have some code “never reveal my source” my advise is to make sure that your “source” knows what they are talking about!!! Royal AM has a full team of people that are qualified to comment and verify on any queries you may have.

MaMkhize pleaded with journalists and media houses to publish facts and not hearsay when reporting about her, her family and Royal AM.
