    WHAT HAPPENED?

    This season, Monnapule Saleng has endured a tough campaign at Orlando Pirates.

    Despite starting quite well in the ongoing edition - scoring five goals and providing an assist in the 13 games played across all competitions- the 26-year-old has been in the cold.

    His last match for Bucs was way back in December against Al Ahly in the Caf Champions League outing at the Orlando Stadium.

  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Despite his lack of game time, Bafana Bafana included Saleng in their squad to play Egypt in the Chan qualifier.

    The Soweto giants did not oppose the decision by Safa; they allowed their attacker to join the Molefi Ntseki-led team.

    Saleng was captured training with his teammates ahead of the first leg scheduled for Sunday in Bloemfontein.

    WHAT NEXT?

    Saleng is reportedly out of contract at the end of the season, but the club might extend his stay by two years.

    The matches against Egypt will be a massive chance for him to prove his worth to potential suitors in case the Sea Robbers opt to let him leave.
