Zifa speaks on dispute with Warriors concerning accomodation

The Warriors yesterday had a dispute with ZIFA over their accommodation, with the senior team rejecting a move to house them at the ZIFA Village in Mt Hampden.

Despite the facility having undergone some renovations, the Warriors said the village was still not up their expectations and chose to remain at Rainbow Towers where they checked into on December 27. Speaking to The Herald, ZIFA spokesperson Xolisani Gwesela said they will continue to engage the players on the accommodation issue. Said Gwasela:

We would like to assure the football loving nation and fans that there is no standoff between ZIFA and the players. Preparations are going on smoothly and training sessions will continue until we depart for Gabon. The team is at Rainbow Towers at the moment, but we would like to have them at ZIFA Village, we will continue to engage the players and the technical team until a win-win situation is reached.
