Marumo Gallants distance themselves from Choeu's 'lying' claims regarding Folz ahead of Kaizer Chiefs clash

Marumo Gallants have responded to Harris Choeu's statement regarding the club's former coach Romain Folz.

The French tactician resigned from the position as the club's head coach due to his poor working relationship with the club's technical director Choeu over the weekend.

Choeu denied the alleged interference at Gallants and slammed Folz for 'lying' as he was taking chances when speaking to Soccer Laduma.
