Mamelodi Sundowns president Patrice Motsepe admits that he will immediately release Keagan Dolly if his buyout clause is met.

The club’s chairman has now confirmed that he will not stand in the player’s way if the club receives an offer that meets his buyout clause.

‘On the Keagan Dolly issue: Mamelodi Sundowns will immediately release Keagan Dolly if it receives an offer in terms of the buyout clause,’ Motsepe said on Sundowns’ official Twitter account.

‘That was agreed between Keagan Dolly and Mamelodi Sundowns and that was upheld in terms of the PSL Dispute Resolution Chamber.

‘The dispute between Keagan and Mamelodi Sundowns is behind us, the young man has my support.’

He added: ‘On the issue of losing players abroad: We expect over the next 10 years to release some of our best players to top European Clubs…’

‘But also to develop quality players at our academy & continue bringing the best South African, African & South American players to the club.’

Motsepe also opened up about losing a player of Dolly’s caliber by insisting that the club has brought in ‘quality players’ to fill the role if he decides to move to a new club.

‘We will never keep a player if they want to leave, we have brought in quality players, like Zakri, Morena, Villa to fill key roles in the team. We are not worried. Never build a club around one player.’

‘I’ve made that mistake and the other players are never happy with that.’

When the Absa Premiership returns, Mamelodi Sundowns will take on Bloemfontein Celtic at the Dr Molemela Stadium on 8 February.

Kick-off has been set for 19:30.
