How Pitso Plans To Overhaul Mamelodi Sundowns

--:--
Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane has begun an overhaul of his squad as he looks to phase out some of the older players and create a new generation to continue his dynasty of success.

Mosimane recently revealed his plans for the next few years and which players he is looking to replace;

“We are currently preparing the team for the future because of the age of the most important players in the team,” Mosimane says.

“We have lots of guys over 30, and when it is over 30 they are not getting younger. None of their speed is getting better, they are just declining.

“That is the challenge we have at Mamelodi Sundowns. These guys have won so many trophies with me and they are important for the team, but what are you going to do, you can’t work against time.”

Listen to the latest episode to hear which specific players he is talking about and more thoughts on the current state of the team.

Also in this episode of the COSAFA Show, is an interviewed with Red Bull Salzburg star Enock Mwepu. Mwepu is one of the most talked-about young midfielders in Europe at the moment. The Zambian has excellent in the Austrian league as well as the UEFA Champions League, where he twice played against Liverpool last season.

Hear his take on Jurgen Klopp’s side and who’s jersey he sought after the game played at Anfield … it is not who you might think!

Finally, we chat to Football Association of Malawi President Walter Nyamilandu, who is also a member of the all-powerful FIFA Council. He updates us on COVID-19 in his country, as well as FIFA’s plans for the game in another fascinating insight into the world of football.
