The club has been facing financial challenges, and new coach John Maduka admitted they had to make sacrifices to take enough players on today's trip. Celtic will restart the season against Baroka FC in the Nedbank Cup semifinal match at Orlando Stadium on Saturday .
The expenses of being in the BSE range from accommodation to meals and the last round of coronavirus tests. And this could cost each club around R2m. "We are going with enough players. As much as there are challenges the team has tried its best to make sure that we have a good squad," Maduka said in a virtual conference yesterday ahead of the match.
"The games will be close to each other and we've taken enough players to make sure that we can compete - I think more than 30 players - so we got enough to complete the remaining games."
