Highlanders has ordered controversial new acquisition Rodrick Mutuma not to speak to the media without the clubs permission.
Mutuma signed a one-year renewable deal on Tuesday night.
"You see we are Highlanders; we have a way of doing our things and the player (Mutuma) has been told that.
"We ordered him not to talk to the media unless and until cleared by the club and we do this to safeguard this institution because you don't know what players can say" Highlanders acting chairman Modern Ngwenya is quoted saying.
"We know players have a tendency of saying reckless statements which might even get the club into a dispute, either with its sponsors or other teams.
Mutuma would be officially unveiled to the media at the club's weekly Press conference today.
He is expected to make his competitive start for Bosso on Sunday aganist FC Platinum in the semi-finals of the annual ZNA Commander's Shield at Barbourfields Stadium.
