Businessman from Durban Purchases the Club

The tax authority had previously placed Royal AM owner Shauwn Mkhize in default of her tax obligations, leading to the appointment of a curator to take control of the club.

While the details of the sale remain confidential, sources close to the deal reveal that the new owner emerged victorious in a bidding war, surpassing offers from parties in Mpumalanga, Free State, Gauteng, and even DR Congo.
The club is expected to remain in KwaZulu-Natal under its new leadership.
New Owner Offers Bonuses to Players
In an effort to boost morale and avoid relegation, the new owner is reportedly offering players substantial bonuses as a motivation to perform better in the second half of the season.
Currently, Royal AM sits at the bottom of the 16-team PSL, with just eight points from 11 matches.
