Will Andile Mpisane play for mom’s new club? MaMkhize responds

Has Andile Mpisane secured a spot as a professional player at his mom, MaMkhize’s new club, named after him?

Shauwn Mkhize – fondly known as MaMkhize – has shut down speculation that her son Andile Mpisane will play for Mbabane Highlanders AM FC.

Last week, the businesswoman officially signed a three-year presidency deal with the eSwatini soccer club.

This news comes months after SARS seized her South African team, Royal AM, to pay off her R40 million debt.

Although the club includes the initials of his name – AM, or Andile Mpisane – his mother, MaMkhize, revealed that her son would take a step back.

Speaking to Andile Ncube on Metro FM, the controversial businesswoman said: “He wants to be in the management space now.

“I don’t see him going there [to eSwatini], but he enjoys being in the business side of things.”

When asked if Andile Mpisane had hung up his soccer boots, his mother responded, “I don’t know, but for now, I think so.

“Because even when Royal AM was there, he was starting to learn the administrative part of it.

“I think all that he wanted was to play in the elite league – which he did, he tasted that”

MUSIC AND CARS

With his football career likely over, Andile Mpisane will likely focus his attention on his budding music career or his hobby of collecting luxury cars.

The 24-year-old is known for his expensive taste in cars and clothes, and posts bragging about his soccer skills.
