Former Kaizer Chiefs star Lorenzo Gordinho has expressed gratitude to former Warriors striker Mathew Rusike for helping him secure a move to Europe.<\/p>\n
The 26-year-old defender joined Danish National First Division side Viborg FF, with the help of Rusike, who was his teammate at Amakhosi.<\/p>\n
\u201cMatthew\u2019s a close friend of mine and he was just on this side, doing things behind the scenes, putting me and my team in South Africa \u2013 ProSport International \u2013 in touch with the club,\u201d Gordinho told South African publication Kick Off.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe helped everything go through, because he\u2019s been here and has worked with the people here in Denmark and in Sweden, so he was actually the connection we had this side.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo he enabled us and helped us to get the deal and get me here. He was basically a correspondent, if I can put it that way, like the middle man.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thanked him because we were teammates [at Chiefs] and became friends, and we\u2019ve always stayed in touch over the years, and for him to help me get this chance means a lot,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
