Former teammate Kermit Erasmus has defended Kaizer Chiefs star Gaston Sirino amid rumours that the Uruguayan is faking injuries and refusing to train.
Erasmus, who played with Sirino at Mamelodi Sundowns, said the Chiefs playmaker is a good teammate and does not believe the rumours about the 33-year-old.
Since joining Chiefs at the start of the 2024/2025 season, Sirino has been a key member of the Amakhosi squad but has been ruled out through injury since early December 2024.

According to FARPost, Erasmus, who has been without a club since leaving Orlando Pirates at the end of last season, had nothing but good things to say about Sirino.
Erasmus said:
"Sirino is a great guy; he works hard in training and loves being his own human being. He can be very playful off the field. I've never had any problems or issues with him while playing with him at Sundowns. You can see his impact as a player; when he's in the mood, he brings his A-game. He still struggles with English, but when I play with him, we'll communicate without speaking."
