Sifiso Ngobeni Feels Honoured to Play for Hometown Team Mamelodi Sundowns! The left back recently joined The Brazilians from Bloemfontein Celtic.
Sifiso Ngobeni has completed a 360 turn as he returns to his hometown of Mamelodi. It is because of this that he feels extremely honoured to represent Sundowns.
His football journey is like many professional players. It took him all over the country.
He gained popularity though in the Free State, playing for Bloemfontein Celtic. His stellar performances saw him selected for the Bafana Bafana squad which won the 2021 COSAFA Cup.
“Being a Mamelodi boy it’s an honour for me to play for a team like Sundowns, the team that I grew up supporting, a team that made me fall in love with football.” Ngobeni told the club media.
“[Mamelodi Sundowns] is a big team, it’s also a way of showing boys from Mamelodi that anything is possible in life if you are disciplined, focused and you believe in your dream, then you can achieve anything. This is a way of showing boys from Mamelodi to not give up on their dreams but [rather] to believe and follow their dreams.” He added.
Ngobeni is very aware that he has joined a star-studded squad. The left back position is already attended to by Lyle Lakay, Tebogo Langerman, Aubrey Modiba and Divine Lunga.
It will be extremely hard for him to get game time. Despite this, he confesses to receiving a warm welcome from his new teammates.
““The players have really welcomed me with open arms and that on its own make’s things easy. The coaches and players have really made me feel at home so that I can settle in quickly and be effective in the team.” He concluded.
Sundowns kick-off their campaign against Kaizer Chiefs in the MTN 8 next weekend. Sifiso Ngobeni Feels Honoured to Play for Hometown Team Mamelodi Sundowns!
