Dundalk Panoramica

The 30-year-old defender has insisted that South Africa’s World Cup dream is far from over despite a bruising opening defeat to tournament co-hosts Mexico. The Orlando Pirates captain believes the squad has seen enough 'glimpses' of quality to turn their fortunes around in the upcoming must-win clashes.

The Sea Robbers legend has launched a scathing attack on football agents, accusing them of 'snatching' young talent from hardworking academies without contributing to their development. The former Buccaneers left-back expressed his frustration after seeing his developmental efforts undermined by representatives looking for a quick payday.

The Buccaneers have secured the services of the teenage winger but have been warned by his Siwelele mentor that the step up to the Soweto giants will require significant mental and technical growth but the 19-year-old possesses the raw ingredients to succeed if he can handle the immense pressure of the Mayfair spotlight.

The former Orlando Pirates star found himself at the centre of intense speculation after his name dominated headlines amid swirling rumours of a controversial switch to Naturena following his departure from the Buccaneers and subsequent loan spell at Stellenbosch. Now a free agent, and after a spell of silence during a media storm surrounding his future, the forward has broken his silence to set the record straight on the Amakhosi links.
