HARARE, Mar. 11, (NewsDayLive) - Highlanders' transfer ban has been lifted after tenderpreneur Wicknell Chivayo cleared the debt that the club owed to its former coaches.
Bosso had been banned from registering new players by Fifa after they failed to pay ex-coach Baltemar Britto and his assistant around $27 000.
Chivayo paid off the arrears but the ban was not immediately lifted.
Highlanders could only pick from 18 players who were registered for their last two matches.
They lost against MWOs before thrashing Kwekwe United this weekend.
The club announced on Tuesday evening that the ban had been lifted.
"Finally, the wait is over! We are delighted to announce that the FIFA ban has been lifted, thanks to the efforts of a dedicated FIFA team as everything has been resolved," Bosso said on their Facebook page.
"Once again, a special thank you to Sir Wicknell Chivayo for facilitating the payment. With this hurdle cleared, we can now register our new signings.
