The death of former Warriors and Orlando Pirates striker Tendai Ndoro, who was found lifeless at his Sandton apartment in South Africa, has taken a tragic twist after a private message surfaced suggesting he felt abandoned in his final days.
Ndoro, aged 40, had reportedly been estranged, battling diabetes, and living in isolation following his 2022 divorce. Although he publicly denied claims of financial ruin, the football star is said to have struggled emotionally after his personal and professional setbacks.
Friends became concerned after days of silence and later discovered his body. A postmortem is underway to establish the exact cause of death.
Tributes continue to pour in from the football fraternity, with many lamenting the challenges faced by former players once their playing days are over.
