Bosso out, Dembare in

PREMIER Soccer League (PSL) champions Dynamos have been cleared to play in the Confederation of African Football (Caf) Champions League after meeting the minimum requirements of the club licensing statutes.

Caf had threatened to ban all clubs that do not meet the minimum requirements from inter-club competitions in a bid to enforce the statues that are also enshrined in the new Zifa constitution.

Zifa communications manager Xolisani Gwesela said yesterday: "Dynamos meet the minimum requirements of the club licensing statutes in that it has a constitution, executive committee, training ground, junior policy and a qualified coach."

Highlanders remain banned and will serve their last term of a three-year ban next season, leaving How Mine, by virtue of being Mbada Diamonds Cup finalists, with the ticket to the Caf Confederation Cup.

The How Mine management is yet to decide on their participation ahead of the Saturday deadline and if they decided not to take up the place, Harare City, who finished in third position in the league, could be asked to fill in.

Mbada Diamonds will subsidise transport and accommodation costs to the tune of $110 000 for the participant.
