Still recovering from his ankle injury, the TS Galaxy player shared a video of his discussion with Mahlatse Mphahlele for Boyle Sports about which team was powerful between Chief and Pirates:
"They're both equally big. We know that Pirates are older than Chiefs, although Chiefs have won more silverware than Pirates and in the history of South African football. They're equally big."
Because of his loyalty to TS Galaxy, Parker told Briefly News that he could not delve into in-depth discussions about other clubs.
Moreover, the seasoned footballer was asked whether Bongani Zungu, whom football fans called for his ban, had extended an apology after injuring him:
"Bongani has never reached out since I have been out of hospital."
