Ex-Kaizer Chiefs star Ekstein discusses moving to AmaZulu instead of Amakhosi

Just after leaving for Europe, the 30-year-old expressed interest to return to the Soweto giants where he had spent five seasons

AmaZulu midfielder Hendrick Ekstein says Benni McCarthy’s influence swayed him to sign for the KwaZulu-Natal outfit.

The speedy linkman joined Usuthu in August following a two-season stint in Azerbaijan where he turned out for Sabah FK and FK Sabail.

During his early days in Europe, Ekstein said he would be interested to rejoin Kaizer Chiefs but he ended up in Durban.
