PICS! Bongani Zungu Back In SA, Meets Hlompo Kekana
Bongani Zungu is back in South Africa after ending a season at Amiens SC in the French Ligue two. His contract is running out on 30 June and it remains to be seen where his next home will be with all rumours pointing him back to Premier Soccer League.
Mamelodi Sundowns who are the former employers of “Ben 10” are believed to have launched a bid for Zungu. His first stint with the Brazilians ended in 2016 when he was transferred to Portugal’s Victoria Guimaraes.

While Zungu is still seeking a new home on the club level, Bafana Bafana coach has been overlooking him when selecting the squad and he has explained why he’s been leaving him out.
“I see what happened (with him) in France. I am very sorry, but this is not a guy who has to be with our group – for the moment,” Broos said after announcing the squad on SABC.
“I don’t speak only about his qualities as a player, but when you see the troubles he had with Amiens this year, he didn’t play in half of the games because there was trouble.

“It was not because he was not good enough but because there were troubles. Three or four months ago, the trainer and the chairman of the club wanted to get him away.
“What is important is the attitude and the mentality of the player. One player can mess up everything because he doesn’t have the right mentality.
“For the moment, I will not pick Zungu because when I see what happened at Amiens, it can happen here and that I don’t want.”
Sundowns might be advantageous in securing his services considering that he has been with the club before and their financial muscle.
