Antony Laffor Released by Mamelodi Sundowns

South Africa Premier Soccer League giants Mamelodi Sundowns have confirmed the exit of Liberian international Antony Laffor.

The 35-year-old attacker joined the club eight years ago but found the going tough at the club in the last two seasons.

Laffor made less than ten appearances for the Brazilians and the only bit of action he got in the previous campaign was one minute against Highlands Park.

He leaves the club together with another legend Wayne Arendse who is rumored to be on his way to Swallows FC.

“A special thanks to the two Sundowns legends who have given their time and efforts to the club and have been part of Masandawana’s success over the years,”  the club said in a statement.

“‘Snoti’ as he [Laffor] is known, is known best for mesmerizing defenders and coming off the bench to score those goals.

“Wayne on the other hand has been a rock-solid member of the defence. His leadership from the back has seen him don the captain’s armband on occasions and his aerial ability made him an offensive threat in the opponents box.

“Thank you gentlemen for the contribution you have given the club and the joy you have brought to the Yellow Nation!”

Laffor played a crucial role in the club’s success and is remembered for scoring one of the goals to hand Sundowns the African Champions League title back in 2016.

He also won five league titles, two Telkom Knockouts, two Nedbank Cups and 2017 Africa Super Cup with Masandawana.
