Zakhele Lepasa

SuperSport United chief executive officer Stan Matthews has given a hint about the future of Zakhele Lepasa whose loan contract nears the end.

If he struggles for more game time, that could further complicate his future. I asked for a short-term loan because I felt we were a little bit shy upfront of a different type of striker because we got target men in Bradley [Grobler], [Thamsanqa] Gabuza, Sibanyoni and [Mamour] Niang. Who will finish higher in the PSL this season? Interestingly, both goals came in one match as a brace and he has fired blanks in other games. Matthews has given an update on other loanees while indicating they are keen on keeping them beyond this season. So we got four big and strong hold-ups number nines, but we don’t really have the mobile striker to move off the big man."
