"It is our belief that as AmaZulu FC continues to grow and take its rightful place in continental club competitions, we are going to see supporters of other teams come to Durban to support their clubs," said Kaunda.

Sandile Zungu, president of AmaZulu Football Club, said the club's management is looking forward to returning to the Moses Mabhida Stadium.

"Our wish is that we remain here for the next 12 years, marking our centenary in 2032. When fans are allowed back into the stadium, this stadium is going to be a sea of green," said Zungu.

According to The South African, Benni McCarthy's side just played their first-ever CAF Champions League preliminary round encounter at the stadium that hosted the 2010 Soccer World Cup and the venue has subsequently been secured for future fixtures.

According to various reports, Benni McCarthy was super hard on the senior players of his team. AmaZulu has struggled to maintain their form from last season, and are lower in the DStv Premiership log standings.

Discord in the AmaZulu camp over Benni McCarthy's temper tantrums with his players, according to an inside source, may be a factor in Usuthu's poor record, according to The South African.
