“Yes, he is joining the Orlando Pirates now, but you see that Gaba (Mhango) and Mabasa need more time,” Josef Zinnbauer said of his attacking options.
“Gabadinho Mhango works very hard, but you can see that he is not the Gaba we had before, but I am happy for his return. We needed them back as we had no options up front.
“The return of these players does not hurt my head. I keep going and we have to fight and the fight is always good for us when we have competition in the squad ”.
