In a touching farewell message, the Brazilian all but confirmed he has left the Tshwane giants, with whom he was involved in a transfer saga.
The attacker has been engaged in a push-and-pull saga with Sundowns, as he wanted his contract terminated so that he could negotiate with and sign for a club of his choice.
However, Sundowns were not keen to go that route, as the PSL heavyweights wanted the Brazilian to honour his running contract.
To show how determined the PSL Player of the Season was to have his contract terminated, he escalated the matter to the FIFA Dispute and Resolution Chamber, hoping to benefit from the Diarra ruling.
