Former South African Football Association (SAFA) Technical Director Walter Steenbok has dropped another bombshell.
Steenbok left SAFA in March – two-and-a-half-years into this contract with the association after enduring a difficult period.
Speaking to Andile Ncube on Metro FM on Thursday, Steenbok revealed that his salary as SAFA’s Technical Director was equivalent to what the association is paying for Hugo Broos’ rent.
Broos is staying in the same building as Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi in Sandton but how much SAFA pays for his rent is unknown.
And Steenbok, who further revealed that Amajita coach Raymond Mdaka was not earning more than R25 000, said the issue of his own salary was part of many problems he had with SAFA.
STEENBOK EARNED AS MUCH AS SAFA PAYS FOR BROOS’ RENT
“I think I need to say this… and I need to say this to our people. You see the respect for black professionals in South Africa in black organisations is a big, big problem,” said Steenbok.
“And I’m telling you this, and maybe not for the first time… my salary was equivalent to the amount that Hugo Broos pays for his rent.
“And if you check the organogram of FIFA, the Technical Director is at the same level as the coach.
“Even though in terms of the responsibilities, my responsibility is on the football development, but that’s just that,” added Steenbok.
