AmaZulu FC emerged in Sadney Urikhob’s latest career earnings revelation, as the Namibian striker confirmed Zimbabwe now pays him better than his time in South Africa. The 34-year-old, now with Triangle FC in the Zimbabwe Premier League, disclosed his earnings in Zimbabwe exceed what he made at AmaZulu more than 20 times over. AmaZulu FC sit 4th in the Premier Soccer League with 47 points from 30 games, 22 points behind league leaders Orlando Pirates, as Urikhob’s comments resurface amid his latest club switch.

What did Urikhob say about AmaZulu FC?

Urikhob, who played for AmaZulu a dozen years ago, stated that his Zimbabwe earnings now surpass his South African stint. “What I have been getting here in Zimbabwe has been even slightly better than what I got at AmaZulu,” he stated. “So, I have been getting paid better here in Zim than I did in SA as well.” His latest move to Triangle FC marks his fifth club in Zimbabwe within three years, adding to stints in Thailand, Tanzania, Indonesia, and Namibia.

Why his words matter for AmaZulu FC

Urikhob’s remarks highlight the financial contrasts between leagues, with his Zimbabwe earnings dwarfing his AmaZulu FC pay. The striker, who also played for Orlando Pirates Windhoek and Civics in Namibia, argued travel is key to earnings. “Your money is not in your country, so you have to travel,” he said. His career spans 20 clubs across six countries, including PSL outfits AmaZulu and Orlando Pirates Windhoek.

Mushore’s exit and Zimbabwe’s PSL exodus

Meanwhile, Mason Mushore has left AmaZulu FC for FC Platinum, coached by Joel Luphahla. Mushore’s short stay in Durban ended as he joined the Zimbabwean outfit. The trend continues with Washington Arubi, Edmore Chirambadare, Prince Dube, Gerald Takwara, and Emmanuel Jalai all returning to Zimbabwe’s PSL. AmaZulu FC have scored 32 goals and conceded 28 this season, sitting 22 points behind Orlando Pirates with a +4 goal difference.

What comes next for AmaZulu FC?

With Urikhob’s career still on the move and Mushore’s switch complete, AmaZulu FC’s squad dynamics remain fluid. The club’s recent form, marked by a WLDDW run, keeps them in contention despite the title gap. Urikhob’s next move could further reshape his legacy, while AmaZulu FC focus on closing the 22-point deficit to Pirates.
