Mohomi explains failed loan move from Sundowns   

Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Lucky Mohomi says he wanted to leave the Brazilians but coach Pitso Mosimane convinced him otherwise.


Mohomi admits that he is frustrated by the lack of game time at Sundowns but says he is willing to stay and fight for his place in the team.

The midfielder believes Mosimane will give him a chance after he asked him not to leave the club.

“It is frustrating to sit out and not play‚” he said.

“Even though it is frustrating‚ sitting outside is more of a learning curve and for growth. I believe that now I am ready and my time is coming for me to showcase my talent.

“I requested for a loan last season but the coach (Mosimane) told me that I need to work more‚ hence no move materialised but now my mind is okay.”

Mohomi revealed what he and coach Mosimane spoke about when he wanted to leave on loan and what the coach said he needs to do to get game time.

“A lot has been happening but the coach told me that he believes in me‚ and I need to work harder to fight for my place because there is a lot of quality in the team.

“The coach has advised me to work more on my agility because I am a little bit slow. He also advised me to work on my aerial strength.

“He wants me to find the target more and score more goals because you can see captain Hlompho Kekana is scoring outside and inside the box.”
