Nasreddine Nabi unhappy with Wandile Duba at Kaizer Chiefs despite Nedbank Cup heroics as the youngster has 'a problem' and 'he’s not 100% ready'

Wandile Duba was on target when Kaizer Chiefs beat Mamelodi Sundowns 2-1 to storm into the Nedbank Cup final.

Duba scored Amakhosi's equaliser after Teboho Mokoena has thrust Sundowns ahead before Ashley du Preez grabbed Chiefs' winner.

"Regarding Duba, I think he has a lot of qualities, physical qualities, technical qualities," Nabi said as per KickOff. 

"The only problem that we work on every time with Duba is that Duba has a mentality problem. You know how younger players are, when he starts to play [often] and with a lot of fans like Kaizer Chiefs, fans is always he’s not 100% ready mentally.

"So, for that, we are trying to work through that. From last season, I think he had a lot of progress to make, and he can make it, why not? If he gives us solutions as a first or second striker next season, [Then he will be Chiefs' number one striker]." 

Duba is Chiefs' top goal-scorer in all competitions, with five of his six goals coming in the Premier Soccer League.

He also has a goal in the Nedbank Cup and this is a tournament he would wish to win and play continental football next year.

After reaching the Nedbank Cup final, Amakhosi switch attention to the PSL and they visit Chippa United on Saturday.

They have a chance of finishing the season in third position and are currently eighth on the table.
