A contentious issue has arisen in Zimbabwean football, involving Caps United, Yadah FC, and Dynamos, over the transfer of player Tanaka Shandirwa. Dynamos, through a statement, accused Caps United of unethical conduct for announcing Tanaka as their player despite his existing contract with Yadah FC. Tanaka was reportedly on loan to Dynamos.
The controversy began when Caps United owner Farai Jere declared Tanaka a part of his team, the Green Machine. However, Yadah FC countered, asserting that Tanaka remains bound by a contract with the Miracle Boys. This development has sparked tensions among the involved parties, highlighting concerns about player transfers and contractual agreements in Zimbabwean football.
The dispute raises questions about the regulatory framework governing player transfers in Zimbabwe. The Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) may need to intervene to resolve the issue.
