"Kaizer Chiefs feels that it is in the player's interest, to keep his progress private and confidential, at this point in time," said Amakhosi in a statement.

"It must be pointed out that the chairman of KC, Mr Kaizer Motaung, is very concerned about Jabu’s situation. As a matter of fact, Mr Motaung has had a series of meetings with him and is still meeting with him on a regular basis to discuss the state of affairs."

Amakhosi added that suggestions that there could be a third force trying to distabilise Pule, cannot be ruled out.

Jabu Pule is currently in the company of capable and responsible people that are part of his counseling programme. Kaizer Chiefs believes he is in safe hands & hopes that the matter will soon be normalised.
