No clarity over Celtic's PSL status yet | News Article

Conflicting reports about Free State's Bloemfontein Celtic Football Club (FC) being brought back to South Africa's top-flight Premier Soccer League (PSL) continue to spiral on the ground.

On Saturday businessman, Lebo Mokoena, from Mokoena Group, told Celtic supporters that the club was back in the premiership. 

Following the announcement, rife speculations started to do rounds as to whether the group had bought the status of the KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) football club, Maritzburg United. But the club director later brushed off the claims and maintains that the club is not up for sale. 

Earlier PSL confirmed the sale of Bloemfontein Celtic to KZN businesswoman, Shauwn Mkhize, who bought the club from Max Tshabalala for R50 million.

Bloemfontein Celtic players have since relocated to Richardsbay and they are now trading in the PSL as Royal AM.
