John Maduka warned against fielding Royal AM chairman Andile Mpisane - 'I won’t play him, he lacks character & is just doing it for fun'

Former Kaizer Chiefs winger Junior Khanye has shared his opinion on Andile Mpisane being selected to play for Royal AM.

Mpisane is Royal AM's chairman is being played despite minimum contribution to the team.

“Andile is talented, but the issue is lack of match fitness. He knows football, but the truth is there’s too much going on in his mind,” said Khanye as per IOL. 

“But I won’t play him, I would ask him to assist maybe with coaching. But if we’re playing for fun then we can play. Because he knows football, but not competitive football for me.

“He has no pressure, so even if I say he know how to play, he lacks character, I mean the desire to be the best. He is just doing it for fun," he added.

“He is competing with anyone, he own the club, so we need to be honest.” 

Mpisane has featured in five Premier Soccer League matches for Royal AM this season, starting four of them.

But he is yet to score or provide an assist in those games, something that places his involvement in games under scrutiny.

This comes as Thwihlo Thwahla are under a Fifa player transfer ban which has tied their hands in the market.

After Royal AM's match against Sekhukhune United on Saturday which they won 2-0, Mpisane will be hoping to get more game time in future.
