Former agent advises Edwin Gyimah to seek help at rehab
A former agent of defender Edwin Gyimah has made a passionate plea to the Ghanaian to seek professional help at a rehab centre.
Ratshibvumo Mulovhedzi of Rush Hour Sports Management has detailed how he feels let down by Gyimah after helping his career numerous times.
The fallout between the former Orlando Pirates player and Mulovhedzi comes after a collapsed move to Betway Premiership side Magesi FC. According to Ratshibvumo, Gyimah was offered a contract at Magesi FC after spending a few days training with them.
Instead, the 33-year-old made a U-turn on signing with the club, apparently because he got a better offer somewhere else. Gyimah has been without a club after parting ways with Sekhukhune United last season.

In a lengthy post on X, Mulovhedzi recommended that the player seek professional help to deal with his anger issues. He also detailed how he has helped Gyimah at various teams after fallouts, including the infamous clash with Muhsin Ertugral at Pirates.
“My advice to him is that he must go get help or to go to rehab so that they can help him deal with anger issues because he gets upset so easily,” wrote Ratshibvumo.

“Remember, no club wanted him after his fight with then Orlando Pirates coach Muhsin Ertugral. But I managed to convince Black Leopards to sign him without a trial. Towards the end of the season, he left them during the COVID-19 camp in the bubble when they were fighting relegation. Securities tried to prevent him from leaving the hotel because of lockdown regulations, but he overpowered them.
“After six months, they told me that he had changed. I then took him to Sekhukhune. But he was released a season later. Then I met him when he was on trial at Marumo Gallants eight months later, and he asked me to help him again because he failed a trial. Then I took him to Magesi to sign without a trial.”
Ratshibvumo further revealed that the defender had already agreed to R100,000 a month salary at Magesi before the U-turn.
“My advice to Edwin Gyimah is that he must apologise to all the people he wronged because in life, no man is an island,” he added.
Gyimah has now been linked with a move to Kazakhstan Premier League side FC Astana. Efforts to solicit a response from the player were unsuccessful.
