Luxury assets auctioned

Several of MaMkhize’s luxury items were put up for online auction from Friday, 10 October, to Wednesday, 15 October 2025, through Bidders Choice.

The auction followed a dramatic period involving her former club. In September, SARS officials arrived at Royal AM’s training base, Royal Ranch, along the R56 between Pietermaritzburg and Maqongqo. Nearly ten trucks were involved in removing furniture, luxury vehicles, construction equipment, and shipping containers to recover funds related to her R40 million tax debt.

The auction included designer handbags, high-end artwork, and a luxury vehicle, attracting competitive bids from collectors and enthusiasts.It listed 18 designer items. By the close of the sale, all the luggage and handbag items had received bids.

The highlight of the auction was a 2021 Lamborghini Urus, valued at R4.8 million. Bids for the vehicle are still pending finalisation by Bidders Choice, along with some other high-value luxury items. Despite past financial controversies, the auction underscores Mkhize’s continued prominence in both the luxury market and football sectors.
