HIGHLANDERS coach Kelvin Kaindu is reported to have signed a pre-contract with fellow Premiership giants FC Platinum to join the Zvishavane side next season, despite a cocktail of denials from all parties.
Kaindu's contract with Highlanders ends in December and the former champions have started renewal negotiations, but the lure of a big payday at Platinum could see the Zambian on the move, the Southern Eye reported.
Highlanders chairman Peter Dube yesterday said they were working well with Kaindu.
"We have our arrangement with Kaindu and we discuss his personal terms with him not with the Press. Why should we announce to the Press what we are discussing? Kaindu is employed by Highlanders and he has not shown any sign that one leg is with us and the other is with another team.
"A lot was said when he went to Zambia, but when he (eventually) goes it will be with the blessing of the club. We will never follow him. As long as he keeps his time and attends to his duties on time, we are not worried," he said.
FC Platinum media liaison officer Chido Chizondo also denied that they had engaged Kaindu.
"That news has not come to me. What I know is that he has not signed any precontract with us," she said.
When contacted for comment, Kaindu referred all questions to the Highlanders executive.
"The best people to comment on my contract with Highlanders will be my bosses. But there is nothing like that," he said.
