TFF extends the transfer window.

TFF general secretary Celestine Mwesigwa attributed their decision to extend the transfer window deadline to the failure by most teams to beat the earlier deadline.

Officials of Premier League clubs that failed to beat Wednesday night’s transfer window deadline, heaved a sigh of relief yesterday when the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) extended the exercise for two more days Goal has learned.
TFF general secretary Celestine Mwesigwa attributed their decision to extend the transfer window deadline to the failure by most teams to beat the earlier deadline, a statement that drew mixed reactions from club officials.
“Our decision to extend the deadline was necessitated by the fact that only two clubs submitted their players’ lists,” he said.
He named the clubs as Ruvu Shooting- a Coast Region Premier League side, and Mbeya’s First Division team Kimondo FC. This is the second time for the TFF to reschedule the deadline for Premier League and First Division clubs to submit to the federation names of players they have drafted in. Earlier, the federation had set August 17 as the transfer window deadline, but postponed it to August 27 for what it termed as ‘technical reasons.’
Mwesigwa named the teams that failed to beat the deadline as Azam FC, Yanga, Mbeya City, Simba SC, Kagera Sugar, Mtibwa Sugar, Police Morogoro, Stand United, Ndanda FC, Tanzania Prisons, JKT Ruvu, Mgambo JKT and Coastal Union.
“We decided to give them more time to finalise the process after learning that the Transfer Matching System (TMS) had some problems,” Mwesigwa said.
