Real SC Overview

The Portuguese mentor has warned the Masandawana faithful to brace themselves for some inconsistency, with the relentless fixture schedule forcing him to sacrifice peak performance at times. Despite guiding the Brazilians into the MTN8 final, the tactician insists heavy rotation is unavoidable, even if it disrupts the team’s rhythm in the short term.

The 28-year-old Nigeria international had been linked with a move to Chloorkop but has instead penned a reported one year deal with Libyan side Al Shomooa SC on a free transfer after severing ties with Stellenbosch FC at the end of last season.

The Tshwane giants are navigating a gruelling fixture schedule, juggling their league commitments with the MTN8 final and a glamour FIFA Intercontinental Cup encounter. While the Portuguese mentor has voiced his frustration and called for better planning to accommodate the congested schedule, he has now accepted that the fixture list is unlikely to change, leaving the Brazilians to find a way to manage the demands and keep competing on all fronts.

The Brazilians tactician has expressed his disbelief regarding the lack of individual recognition for the Chilean star. Despite the 27-year-old’s sustained excellence in the heart of the Tshwane giants’ midfield, the Portuguese manager believes the playmaker has been unfairly overlooked for the league's top honours.
