Mamelodi Sundowns have issued a statement following the passing of Motjeka Madisha in a car accident over the weekend.
Sundowns confirmed that the family had met with pathologists in order to establish if the person who passed away in a car crash was Madisha.
"The Madisha family requests privacy and the relevant protocols be followed during this difficult period of uncertainty. Mamelodi Sundowns will communicate further details after consultation with the Madisha family once the DNA test results have been released," said the statement.
"The nature of the horrific car crash that took place on the Zuurfontein Road near Chloorkop requires that all processes be followed by the necessary authorities with relevant expertise to confirm the identity of the driver," the statement added.
Madisha played for Sundowns since 2015 and had also become a regular in the Bafana Bafana set-up in recent years.
The 25 year old's death came just two weeks after Madisha's former Sundowns team-mate Anele Ngcongca died in a car crash in KwaZulu-Natal.
