The Court of Arbitration for Sport has upheld FIFA’s ruling that Ngezi Platinum must pay former assistant coach Bongani Mafu US$196,750 for unfair dismissal.
Mafu signed with Ngezi Platinum in March 2022 on a 4 year deal but was dismissed in July 2022 after just for months into the deal.
The coach signed the deal and was set to receive:
. Sign-on fee: USD 4,800 “for the duration of the Contract and shall be paid as a once
of instalment per season”;
• Monthly salary: USD 3,200 before the 30th day of every month;
• Housing: USD 150 per month;
• Transport: “where transport is not provided, the club will pay an advised amount of
transport allowance of USD 30”;
• Winning bonus: USD 480 per match; and
• Draw bonus: 50% of the win bonus for away games only.
In addition, subject to Addendums A and B of the Contract, the Appellant and the coach also agreed on the following performance incentives for the 2022 season only:
• League Champions: 200% of one month’s salary;
• Top 2 in League: 50% of one month’s salary;
• For all cup competitions: 2.5% of total prize money won by the club (“50% shall go
to the club and the remaining 50%, net of all expenses for participation in the CUP,
shall be the Team’s Share which will be shared amongst the team (players and technical
staff) as follows: The First Assistant Coach shall receive 5% of the Team’s Share.”);
Meanwhile Benjani Mwaruwari also has a similar case with Ngezi Platinum and the club has been ordered to pay US $600,000 for unfair dismissal as well.
