Striker out in the cold
Shakes Mashaba is believed to be disappointed that he could not help former Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs striker, Bongani Ndulula (below) resurrect his footballing career as the 29-yearold failed a trial at Witbank Spurs. Sources have revealed that Mashaba invited Ndulula to Spurs to have a closer look at him and see if he could be of any help as the former Bafana coach has been tasked with rescuing
from relegation in the National First Division. “Ndulula is not the same player Mashaba thought he was and he couldn’t make it so the trial was cut short as it was clear there was nothing he could offer the coach,” said a source. Ndulula is the national Under-23 team’s all-time top scorer and was a lethal striker under Mashaba’s guidance.
Pitso happy with three up front
Gaston Sirino (above), Themba Zwane and Lebohang Maboe are tipped to be the reincarnation of the famous “CBD” featuring Leonardo Castro, Khama Billiat and Keagan Dolly, who have all since left Mamelodi Sundowns. Pitso Mosimane has been looking to re-establish a lethal partnership as he has tried out several combinations. However, most have disappointed. “The coach looks content with the trio and that is why he plays them at the same time whenever he can. He wants to build the team around them because age is still on their side,” said an informant at the Brazilians’ camp. @jontymark @SbongsKaDonga @Toko900
