Masandawana faces a race against time to secure the future of Allende, with the Chilean playmaker currently entering the final months of his contract at Chloorkop. The South American midfielder has become a cornerstone of the Brazilians' dominant tactical set-up since his arrival in 2022, leaving the club hierarchy desperate to avoid losing him for nothing at the end of the season.

The Tshwane giants' mentor has explained why the 29-year-old defender is yet to feature regularly since arriving at Chloorkop. Despite the excitement surrounding his arrival, the former Orlando Pirates star is still waiting for his opportunity, while other new recruits have already hit the ground running.

Masandawana head coach has heaped praise on the veteran defender following his successful return to the starting XI. The 32-year-old put in a commanding performance to help the Brazilians secure their place in the Carling Knockout Cup semi-finals.
