TS Galaxy striker out to impress Pirates coach

Striker Zakhele Lepasa hopes to have a good performance against Kaizer Chiefs in the Nedbank Cup final to impress Orlando Pirates coach Micho Sredojevic.


Lepasa, who is on loan at Galaxy from Pirates, would like to be back at Pirates next season.

The 22-year-old believes he is ready to play for Pirates.

“All I need to do is to play well whenever I get the chance, like in the final this weekend, hopefully, it will be enough to convince them (Pirates) that I must be back,” Lepasa told Daily Sun.

“But it won’t be easy because they have a lot of good players who are full of energy. They run and work hard. But we’ll see when pre-season comes.”

“Hopefully, I will be ready and gel with the team because I think I have the work ethic but whether or not that’s what the coaches want, we’ll have to wait and see.”
