Zimbabwean soccer striker, Nyasha Mushekwi was expected to depart for Germany today to undergo trials with German Bundesliga side, FC Nurmeburg.
Despite rejecting an initial offer of 8 million rand from the bundesliga club, Mamelodi Sundowns confirmed they had allowed Mushekwi to go for trials at the German club.
A source at Mamelodi Sundowns said Mushekwi was scheduled to travel to Germany this evening for further talks with the Bundesliga side.
Sundowns spokesperson, Kabelo Mosito confirmed that the 24-year-old Zimbabwean was heading for Germany.
The Mamelodi Sundowns striker, who is currently suspended from international football by Zimbabwe after being implicated in the widely-publicised Asiagate match-fixing scandal, was set to move to newly-promoted German Bundesliga side Greuther Fürth in a deal worth R10 million (about US$1,2m).
Greuther Fürth wanted to give the former CAPS United hitman a medical and see him in a few training sessions before putting a contract in front of him - standard practice in Europe - but Sundowns would not let the player travel.
