Mamelodi Sundowns Receive Loan Offer from Tanzanian Club Young Africans for Ethiopian Winger Abubeker Nassir as Team Considers His Future

It looks like there’s some significant movement at Mamelodi Sundowns as they explore new opportunities for their players.

Tanzanian heavyweights Young Africans have made a move, showing interest in one of Sundowns’ first-team players.

New Tactics Mean Changes for Sundowns

Under the fresh leadership of Manqoba Mngqithi, Mamelodi Sundowns is entering a new era with different strategies.

This shift means that not all players fit into the revamped plans, and some may be on their way out.

Ethiopian winger Abubeker Nassir, a 24-year-old with undeniable skill, seems to be among those who might not be in the team’s future plans.

With management opting not to use him for the upcoming season, he could be up for sale or a loan move.

Yanga’s Offer and Sundowns’ Decision

Young Africans, commonly known as Yanga, have expressed interest in Nassir, putting forward an initial offer for a loan move.

An insider revealed that Sundowns is considering both loan and permanent options.

Since Nassir is still under contract, the decision will weigh heavily on the specifics of the offer, including his substantial salary.

Sundowns are waiting to finalize the details with Yanga before making any decisions on whether to register Nassir for the new season.

Manqoba Mngqithi on Team Performance

On a different note, Sundowns’ coach Manqoba Mngqithi has addressed the team’s recent performance.

After being unexpectedly knocked out of the MTN8 by Stellenbosch FC in the semi-finals, Mngqithi believes there’s no reason for excuses.

According to him, the club has all the tools needed to address their shortcomings, particularly their finishing.

He emphasized that the team must focus on converting their chances to maintain their dominant position in the Premier Soccer League.

No Excuses at Chloorkop

Mngqithi pointed out that the team’s depth, quality, and hard work are crucial.

Despite the setback against Stellenbosch FC, he stressed that Sundowns have everything they need to succeed.

The focus now should be on improving their scoring opportunities and ensuring they capitalize on them in future games.
