Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder, Bongani Zungu has come under severe fire after his tackle resulted in placing Parker in a wheelchair, if only temporarily.

Commenting on the medical prognosis, Parker told the SABC:

"The doctors say I can be playing by February/March, so I am focusing on my recovery the best way I can. My chairman said to me as long as the club exists I’ve got a place there."

Regarding Zungu, the veteran was reconciliatory but had an opinion on the factors that led to the injury.

Responding to a question about the Sundowns man's intent, Parker said to Andile Ncube:

"I analysed the whole situation. There was a buildup of emotions as well from him and it built up to that. This has happened to a lot of players, maybe I am the unlucky one at this moment. I am not angry at all," suggesting there was intent behind the reckless tackle.
