Cape Town City chairman John Comitis believes the Premier Soccer League (PSL) needs to resume football in some form by the end of May to avoid big financial losses to the league and its clubs.

Comitis, a member of the PSL’s executive committee, said City’s sponsors, SportPesa, have already indicated they will not be able to fulfill their financial commitment for the remainder of the 2019-20 season, though the betting company also had other financial challenges before the outbreak of the coronavirus in South Africa.

“We are already having certain issues with our sponsor. And that just puts additional pressure on you because you’ve already budgeted to have that money.” “They had issues with their [betting] licence in Kenya, which is half of their business, and couldn’t operate there for five months.
