At 33 years old, Andile Jali finds himself under the mentorship of Moroka Swallows coach Steve Komphela, who firmly believes that the seasoned midfielder can elevate his game to new heights with the right conditioning.

Jali made the switch to Moroka Swallows at the commencement of the 2023/24 DStv Premiership season, departing Mamelodi Sundowns after a five-year stint.

Komphela commends Jali’s exceptional decision-making on the field, attributing it to the midfielder’s innate football intelligence.

Drawing an analogy, Komphela compares certain qualities to instincts, stating, “You don’t teach a lion to hunt, you don’t teach a crocodile to bite. It’s just the instinct of a crocodile to be monstrous.”

This acknowledgment underscores the unique attributes that Jali brings to the team, highlighting the importance of learning from the experienced midfielder.
