MASIMBA Mambare's ghost is haunting Highlanders FC as the Dynamos winger has dragged the Bulawayo giants to court, to force them to pay him outstanding signing on fees, for his two-year stay at Bosso.
The player, who made a sensational switch to Highlanders' bitter rivals Dynamos at the beginning of the season, claims Bosso owe him $9,000 in signing on fees.
Through the Footballers Union of Zimbabwe, Mambare has sought redress through the labour court and the two parties - Highlanders and him will appear at a hearing on November 6.
Paul Gundani, the FUZ secretary-general, said it was not their intention to approach the labour court, but Highlanders' failure to respond to letters written to them in May, left them with no option, but to take the legal route.
"We wrote Highlanders twice on May 7 and a week after, but got no response. Both letters were addressed to the secretary- general, Andrew Tapela.
Mambare signed a two-year contract with Highlanders on March 1, 2012 and they were supposed to pay him $10,000, but he says he was paid only $1,000," said Gundani.
