“Stellenbosch hasn’t yet reached an agreement with Sibusiso Mthethwa regarding the extension of his contract. There are issues that the parties are not agreeing on and one of those is the length of the proposed new deal,” said the source.
Mthethwa has made nine appearances under coach Steve Barker in the DStv Premiership so far this season and will be aiming to improve on that when the season resumes.
