Reports surrounding the sale of the club have been doing the rounds in the football fraternity after it was revealed that the club was experiencing financial difficulties and was struggling with payment of players' salaries.
However, businessman Mulaudzi has moved quickly to dismiss these reports and remains adamant that the club is not for sale and neither are its shares.
Speaking exclusively to the Siya crew, Mulaudzi revealsed that he had come across reports stating that he was selling a 70% stake of his team to Kaizer Chiefs supremo, Kaizer Motaung.
"TTM is a competitive team, we came here and built it from the NFD, although we bought status into the PSL, we started from lower divisions. So, people must rally behind us, I'm not saying people must not criticize us, people must criticize us and be factual when they do so," Mulaudzi told the crew.
"I read a piece sometime last week. How do you think Mr Kaizer Motaung will go and buy 70% of TTM, where on earth will you find some of those things? It is really uncalled for." He added.

After remaining silent on these reports, Mulaudzi revealed why he felt the need to speak out against the claims made against the club.
"I decided not to go to the media to say 'guys, focus.' I've been quiet about these people who just wake up and smoke something and then talk bad about TTM. It is very unfair.
"Anyone who wants this team to die or be sold or relegated is not doing justice to the poorest of the poor. The people who can spend a day or two without having even a R1 in their pocket," Mulaudzi concluded.
TTM will be in action on Sunday when they take on Baroka FC in what is dubbed as a Limpopo derby at the Thohoyandou Stadium.
