TFF rejects Simba’s CAF list


Fredrick Mwakalebela, the TFF’s General Secretary

THE TFF has rejected a squad list presented by Simba for next year’s CAF Champions League, after detecting transfer irregularities involving some players on the list.


Fredrick Mwakalebela, the TFF’s General Secretary, said Simba were told to get the right papers for all the players before submitting the list.

“We have returned the forms back to them so that they could work on the identified deficiencies before resubmitting them to us,” he said.

He mentioned some of the deficiencies as submitting names of new players without their International Transfer Certificates. He cited strikers Athuman Machupa and Emmanuel Gabriel, as the players whose ITCs from Rwanda and Oman were lacking.

Also Mwakalebela said Simba signed some players from local clubs without first agreeing with the concerned clubs.

He added that some players signed from local sides, such as Edwin Mukenya from Yanga, lacked transfer forms from their former clubs.

Mwakalebela urged Simba to put things in order before tomorrow, which is the deadline set by CAF Club Competitions Committee.
