The Urban Warriors' CEO has issued a stern warning to the talented attacker after his high-profile move to Amakhosi, insisting the youngster stay grounded. The 21-year-old winger made an immediate impact on his debut, but his former mentor believes the hard work is only just beginning at Naturena.
The Amakhosi captain has found himself under intense scrutiny following a series of uncharacteristic errors in recent Premier Soccer League outings. However, the club’s former striker Thembinkosi Biyela believes the shot-stopper’s dip in form is rooted in the psychological blow of missing out on the 2026 World Cup.
Amakhosi have finally brought an end to the uncertainty surrounding their upcoming Premier Soccer League fixture against Siwelele FC by confirming a new match venue. The Soweto giants were forced into an exhaustive search for a stadium after their primary home ground and several backup options were rendered unavailable due to scheduling conflicts and pitch concerns.
Downs are facing a rare moment of domestic vulnerability as they prepare for a high-stakes showdown in the MTN8 semi-finals. After a shock defeat in the first leg, the Brazilians must find their scoring boots to keep their dreams of silverware alive this season.
The 21-year-old has expressed his gratitude toward head coach Fernando Da Cruz after making his highly anticipated debut for the club. The young attacker provided a spark off the bench during the recent Betway Premiership clash against Richards Bay in Umlazi.
The French coach has handed the Amakhosi faithful a massive boost by confirming that the defender is finally closing in on a competitive return. The 24-year-old has endured a torrid time on the sidelines but has now successfully stepped up his recovery by featuring in match action.
