Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Bongani Zungu has opened up about his
situation at the club ahead of their CAF Champions League assignment in
Cameroon.
Since rejoining the Chloorkop outfit in August last year, the 30-year-old
has been playing catch-up in terms of his fitness, and has enjoyed
relatively less game time than initially anticipated.
However, speaking to the media ahead of their match against Coton Sport,
Zungu insists that he is putting in the work to garner a regular spot in
the starting XI. “I made a decision to come back and play for one of the
biggest teams in Africa, a team with great ambition. You know, to succeed
and compete against the best in Africa. Since I’ve left Sundowns and
coming back, there’s been a tremendous improvement in all corners of the
club and the players that we have now have big quality, so for me, it’s
just it has been about working hard and I’m playing for a team that is
doing very well,” Zungu said.
He added, “It doesn’t matter who starts. It’s up to the coach who he
starts and as I just mentioned that for me it’s just to continue working
hard and be patient and wait and wait for my chance and when the chance
does come, you know just grabbing both hands.”
