Former Bafana Bafana and Bidvest Wits defender Buhle Mkhwanazi has revealed the details of his multimillion-rand contract with the Clever Boys between 2019 and 2021.
The 32-year-old defender recently took to Instagram to share his earnings during his time with the now-defunct Wits, where he was understood to be one of the club’s highest earners.
Mkhwanazi’s contract revealed that he earned R195 000 in his first year, R175 000 in his second year and R190 000 in his third year. This means that in his three years with the club, Mkhwanazi earned a total of R6.7 million. However, Mkhwanazi’s post was not only about his earnings, but also about his spiritual journey.
He wrote, “I remember I used to boast about the numbers on my contract not knowing that my soul was suffering, the day Jesus Christ visited me I never knew that all this will be taken away from me by him just for my soul to be saved. Today I boast in my weaknesses but with a soul that is prospering, it is better to hear the voice of God than being rich without knowing that your soul is in danger. I urge many to be rich in all things, receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal savior and u shall recover all 1 day.”
