Mosa Lebusa has firmly addressed the rumors about Mamelodi Sundowns’ recent changes, and he’s not buying into the notion that these shifts have made the club any less formidable.
According to him, Sundowns is actually more dangerous than ever with Manqoba Mngqithi steering the ship.
Recent events have certainly stirred the pot.
The surprise exit of Rulani Mokwena, who left for Wydad Casablanca in Morocco, led to a lot of speculation about the future of Sundowns. With Mngqithi stepping up as the head coach, many wondered if the club’s dominance might take a hit.
Lebusa’s Strong Rebuttal
But Lebusa isn’t worried. In fact, he’s dismissing the idea that Sundowns might be on the decline. He describes the team as even more focused and ready than before, having used the off-season to fine-tune their game.
Lebusa’s confidence shines through as he speaks about Sundowns’ commitment to staying at the top of South African football and their quest for continental success.
Sundowns’ New Look
Lebusa spoke confidently while preparing for their upcoming match against Polokwane City FC in the MTN8 quarter-final.
The recent additions to the technical team, including Steve Komphela’s return as senior coach and Romain Folz as assistant coach, are seen as positive changes.
This new lineup joins existing team members Wendell Robinson and Kennedy Mweene, all under Mngqithi’s seasoned leadership.
A Dangerous Team
Lebusa praises Mngqithi’s extensive experience and the valuable insights he brought even as an assistant coach. He firmly believes that the team’s current setup is far from vulnerable and argues that Sundowns is poised to be even more dangerous this season.
