Civo defender snubs Blantyre giants

As many Super League teams seek to strengthen their squads ahead of the 2015 season, Blantyre giants, Big Bullets and Mighty Be-Forward Wanderers have bitter news from Lilongwe.

Civo United’s defence pillar, John ‘Kintu’ Lanjesi whom the two rivals hoped they would land to bolster their defence has rebuffed their interests, opting to remain with Civo.

“I have made up my mind to remain at Civo United after further consultations and meetings with my bosses. It was an easy decision to make because it is the wish of every player to play for Bullets or Wanderers but at the end you choose what you like and where you feel you will be comfortable,” said Lanjesi.

But Big Bullets general secretary Harold Fote has not given up the pursuit to bring Lanjesi to the Peoples team camp.

“We still need his services, and we will not give up until Lanjesi sign for us.  Let me assure our fans that we will continue discussing with Civo and the player until we win the battle,” said Lanjesi.
