Mkhuma was rewarded with a first-team contract early in February following his brilliance in the team’s reserve side.
“Just like it happened with the likes to Percy Tau and Keletso Makgalwa, he will also be going on loan. It won’t be fair for a 19-year not to get regular time because you know how it at Sundowns, the competition is very high. But one thing I know is that if he proves himself at training, the coach might reconsider loaning him out,” said the source.

According to a source, Manyisa’s grandfather is believed to have passed on following a short illness.
