Experienced striker revealed why he didn’t signed with two South African clubs after leaving soweto giant.
Kermit Erasmus has not found club since he departed the Soweto side Orlando Pirates at the end of last campaign.
The former Mamelodi Sundowns striker was previously linked with Chippa United before January transfer window.
Before these it was alleged that gqeberha born was practicing with motsepe foundation side Capetown Spurs with intention to sign contract.
Erasmus revealed why he doesn’t have a club upto this point despite some teams showed interest in his service.
He said “I spoke to the [Spurs] chairman [Ari Efstathiou] and I had a good chat with him about being able to train.
“And the coach also wanted to know what my intentions were and that was to see if it would be possible for me to join the team. They were happy with what they saw in a short space of time.
“From the offer they presented to me through my agent, it just wasn’t worth my time. But the chairman did open his door to me and said if ever I want to come back and work on the strikers, I could do that. I’ve always shown my appreciation for that and he knows that.
“It was a good period to train with the boys and be around the facility and be around football again.
“I had a different idea of what I thought would be an offer. It is not that I was not happy with the offer, it just was not agreed on.”
On Chippa United contract Erasmus emphasized that the issue was the number of the games he is going to play.
He said “The same thing at Chippa. I trained with them for like two weeks and the coaches, who are there now are coaches who I’ve played with during their playing days.
“I was fortunate to be teammates with them. They were happy with what they saw at training, but it was just about the duration of terms and numbers.
“Sometimes it is not what you discussed and what is offered is not what is agreed on. I would not say the disagreement (is) in that, but the misunderstanding of that, and then you don’t find common ground.
“No hard feelings, it is just business, we are all looking out for ourselves and unfortunately, it was not possible.”
Erasmus joins the list of players who are currently doesn’t have clubs such as Kgaugelo Sekgotha, Limbikani Muzava etc.
