Madisha: Fifa president Infantino sends condolences on Mamelodi Sundowns defender's passing

Fifa president Gianni Infantino has issued his condolences on the tragic passing of Mamelodi Sundowns defender Motjeka Madisha.

Madisha reportedly died in a motor vehicle accident on Sunday morning, just three weeks after another Sundowns player, Anele Ngcongca, lost his life in the same tragic manner.

In a letter addressed to the South African Football Association (Safa), published by Farpost, Infantino expressed his condolences to the South African football fraternity.

“I would like to express my sincerest and heartfelt condolences on the tragic and sudden passing of international player Motjeka Madisha. Words seem inadequate to express the sadness we feel for this loss," the Fifa boss wrote.
