Coronavirus: AmaZulu turn to Department of Labour’s UIF to pay salaries

In an aim to keep the club afloat, AmaZulu have turned to the Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) to ensure they meet their salary demands during the break due to the coronavirus pandemic.

According to the club’s general manager, Lunga Sokhela, he explains they have also joined a number of South African companies that have applied for funding from the Department of Labour.

The reports come after Usuthu were reportedly planning to cut the salaries of players a few weeks ago, a move that led to a battle with the South African Football Player’s Union (Safpu).
