The January transfer window may have just closed but Friday's deadline day left the majority of South African football fans with broken hearts.
On Thursday night through to Friday morning, there was excitement among SA fans as news of Bongani Zungu possibly leaving Amiens SC for Mallorca gained serious momentum.
However, that turned into tears and heartbreak as the closing of the transfer window fast approached.
Amiens blocked Zungu's move to La Liga outfit Mallorca after failing to sign Victor Wanyama from Tottenham Hotspur as his replacement, and the South Africa international had to return to his French Ligue 1 team to honour his contract.
