The clip, which quickly went viral, was taken during her recent visit, where she was seen engaging with football fans following a local match.
According to SABC Sport’s Xoliswa Zondo, Mkhize made the comment shortly after the team she was watching suffered a defeat.
The timing left many wondering whether her remark was simply light-hearted or a genuine hint at her next big business move.
With her club Royal AM currently facing legal and financial complications — including its reported takeover by the South African Revenue Service (SARS) — fans are speculating that Mkhize may be looking to expand or even shift her football interests elsewhere.
Reactions on social media have been mixed, with some supporters cheering her on and others questioning the timing of the potential investment.
Either way, the possibility of Mkhize entering Eswatini’s football space has definitely caught people’s attention.
