Premier Soccer Chairman chairman Irvin Khoza said on Wednesday that the league could not secure the Bloemfontein venue due to issues beyond their control.
“There was nothing that could have stopped us from hosting this final or it happening in Mangaung because we had the full backing of Executive Mayor Olly Mlamleli‚” he said.
“The executive mayor was willing to be engaged so she could make interventions because some of the things you must quantify in terms of money.” “Contrary to the announcement made by PSL regarding the hosting of the Nedbank Cup final‚ Toyota [Free State] Stadium in Bloemfontein is and was always available for the Nedbank Cup final‚” the Cheetahs’ statement read.
