He is a national team player and the fans want to see him on the field of play. I\u2019m not going to mention other clubs (that had been interested in the player), because that\u2019s water under the bridge now,\u201d said Ngobeni.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut we all know the big two that were chasing Talent. One of the two clubs had been chasing Talent from way back last year in June. We delayed that because we wanted assurance that the player was going to play. We couldn\u2019t just be happy with making people happy that he signed for a big club, but we wanted assurance that a Zimbabwean asset was going to play.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the end of the day, AmaZulu showed love. AmaZulu coach (Cavin Johnson) is a big fan of Talent Chawapiwa. As long as he is fit, he\u2019s going to be number one in his position. He is a player who gives his all. We didn\u2019t want to disappoint him by taking him to a club where he was going to sit on the bench and enjoy the jersey and colours of the club.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"ajdg_bnnrwidgets-20\" class=\"widget ajdg_bnnrwidgets \">\n<div class=\"apckejb-single apckejb-45\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talent Chawapiwa\u2019s agent has revealed why the player opted to sign for AmaZuu instead of some big clubs which were chasing after his signature.
