At the peak of his illustrious career, former Orlando Pirates star Tendai Ndoro was dubbed ‘Fire 7’ because of his goalscoring ability and flair.
Undoubtedly, he was a gem and had the opportunity to star for several clubs, including Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Faisal. The star made it known that he was earning big in Saudi Arabia.
MAKING HEADLINES
During his recent interview with award-winning iDiski Times journalist Lorenz Kohler, he said he was pocketing ‘R434 654 cash a month.’
At the time, the Zimbabwean star invested a lot in his homeland and South Africa. However, everything changed in the blink of an eye.
Rumour mill has it that his dramatic fallout with Thando Maseko took a toll on his career. Tendai Ndoro seemingly lost everything and had to return to Zimbabwe before returning to South Africa.
In 2021, he hogged headlines when his frail-looking pictures at Simba Bhora training ground, a Zimbabwe Football outfit, flooded social media.
Years later, fans are still convinced that his South African ex-wife, Thando Maseko, is privy to his fall. However, the star rubbished the rumours in a sit-and-tell interview in 2022.
During an interview with South African Sports Gist, Tendai Ndoro said, “It was not anything to do with Thando. It was not a marital thing or a financial thing but a spiritual attack that affected me.”
However, the star has since bounced back years later, and his recent interview has thrust him into top trends.
