From his first trials at Amakhosi in 2023, joining the Rockets last season, breaking into the Bafana Bafana squad and now reportedly being a transfer target of the Brazilians, the defender who hails from Sahlumbe in KwaZulu-Natal is on a rapid rise. A big move could be on the cards in the next few transfer windows as he shares his big football ambitions.

    Ndamane on reported Sundowns transfer interest

    "Let’s focus here, let’s put the Sundowns matter aside because it will cause problems for us. I play for TS Galaxy," said Ndamane as per KickOff.

    "I wish to play for a big team or go overseas one day, and I believe my time will come."

    Chiefs rejects proving Amakhosi wrong

    Ndamane's move to TS Galaxy might be a reflection of what looks like Chiefs' mistake of letting their development players move to PSL clubs where they shine.

    Those players include Ndamane's Rockets teammates Puso Dithejane and Ntandoyenkosi Nkosi, who captained Amakhosi's DStv Diski title-winning side last season.

    At Stellenbosch, left-back Omega Mdaka has been proving that Chiefs did not have to release him after coming through their development ranks.
