Marumo Gallants star Gabadinho Mhango, mostly known for his Orlando Pirates stint, has put his football career in serious jeopardy.
GABADINHO MHANGO DRUNK IN CAR ACCIDENT
According to Austin Ditlhobolo, Mhango bumped into a Toyota Quantum with his Polo Tsi while under the influence of alcohol in Bloemfontein on Sunday. A witness also claimed that the former Orlando Pirates star had four female passengers in the vehicle.
The 32-year-old Malawian striker was previously suspended by his former clubs, AmaZulu and Swallows, for reporting to work drunk.

Melusi Buthelezi arrived a season later to make Ofori third choice.
Meanwhile, the 30-year-old Ghanaian has joined AmaZulu.
