South African club Durban City FC mourns passing of young defender Sinamandla Zondi

South African outfit Durban City FC has mourned the tragic passing of their defender Sinamandla Zondi.

The 22-year-old young defender suddenly joined his maker on Tuesday night after collapsing before the start of the derby clash between Durban City and Milford FC at Chatsworth Stadium.

Zondi was immediately rushed to the hospital for medical treatment but could not survive, leading to his unfortunate demise.

“It is with deep sadness that we confirm the passing of Sinamandla Zondi, aka Sgora, a loved member of the Durban City family,” the club said in a statement.

“Sinamandla was more than a talented footballer, He was a teammate, a friend, a brother, a son and an inspiration to all who knew him.

“Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with his family, friends, teammates, coaches and everyone affected by this tragic loss. We will continue to support those close to him during this difficult time.”

The defender made his professional debut in September 2021 and had been a regular for his club this season as they sit top of the standings and are on course for promotion to the Betway Premiership, the top flight of South African football.
