Ngoma’s had enough of being bit-part player
Out-of-favour Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Aubrey Ngoma (below) could find a new home at Kaizer Chiefs in January, if things go according to his management’s plans. Phakaaathi has learnt through its sources that Ngoma wants out of Masandawana, where he feels like a spare part as he barely gets a look-in from coach Pitso Mosimane. “Everyone knows his situation and it is not good for him, so his managers are trying to get him out of Sundowns. He could go out on loan and Chiefs are one of the clubs they are speaking to. It will be tough because I don’t think Sundowns would loan a player to Chiefs,” said a source. If the move happens, Ngoma will become one of the few players who have played for all three of the country’s top clubs, having played for Orlando Pirates in the past. He could be a perfect replacement for Siphiwe Tshabalala as Amakhosi do not have a natural left-footed midfielder.
