Talent Chawapiwa interview
What compels a club smack bang in the relegation fight to sell one of their key players to a team also in the bottom half of the league table? That this transaction happens just four months before the season ends is another important factor to consider. As if that is not enough, the player at the centre of it all has to contend with being the so-called replacement of the recently departed attacker of the team he’s joining. Baptisms of fire don’t come better than this for Talent Chawapiwa. He chats to Soccer Laduma’s Celine Abrahams about his move.
