A Mamelodi Sundowns youth international remains a target for a loan switch to AmaTuks after struggling for minutes at Chloorkop last season. The South African youth international managed just six appearances across all competitions in 2024/25, and a temporary move to the university side would give him the regular game time he needs to develop.

Career Development Decision Looms

It is the kind of decision that defines a young career. Sundowns have the depth to swallow a talented prospect whole — six appearances in a full season is not enough for any player trying to build momentum. A loan to AmaTuks makes footballing sense, and if the move goes through, the player gets a platform to prove himself away from the pressure of competing for a starting berth at one of the continent's biggest clubs.

Sundowns' Season Disrupted by Tragedy

Sundowns' pre-season has already been disrupted, with coach Miguel Cardoso describing it as 'interrupted' following the tragic passing of Jayden Adams. With the PSL season now underway and the MTN8 quarter-finals approaching this weekend, Cardoso will want his squad settled quickly — which makes resolving loan decisions like this one an urgent priority.

Watch the AmaTuks roster closely over the next few days to see whether this deal gets confirmed before the transfer window tightens.
