The left-back is likely to leave without having played an official game for the club.Mokgothu signed for Amakhosi in June 2014, but has never made his official debut. According to his agent, Tim Sukazi, the 26-year-old will start afresh when his contract with Chiefs expires in June."I'm arranging to ship him out [of Chiefs] by the end of this season. In any event, his contract is coming up.""It is not good for him to not play football and it is not good for the club," Sukazi told The Times.The Bloemfontein-born defender made 24 starts in all competitions for Moroka Swallows before moving to Chiefs. Sukazi said Mokgothu was "gutted" with his experience at Chiefs when his career seemed well on track."Like any player he is disappointed with the turn of events, but he accepts you have to compete for a place."..
