BusinessLive reports that Danny Jordaan, president of the cash-strapped SA Football Association (Safa), says the association will decide on Amajita’s bonuses for winning the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) only once it receives the R3.6m in prize money from the CAF (Confederation of African Football).
On Tuesday, Jordaan and Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos were speaking at a press conference to welcome Amajita back to SA at OR Tambo International Airport, 48 hours after the national U20 side beat Morocco 1-0 in the final in Cairo to win their first U20 Afcon title. “We haven’t received any money from CAF yet, and when we have the money, we will decide [how it’s divided],” Jordaan indicated. Safa’s financial woes are well documented, with the association having failed to pay its staff’s March salaries on time. Jordaan suggested that participating in almost all competitions in recent times had emptied Safa’s coffers. “We play in every single competition under CAF and Fifa, and that means travelling, accommodation, daily allowances and everything. And we fulfil our commitment,” he explained.
