Tiyani Mabunda returns to Mamelodi Sundowns as club ambassador
Briefly News previously reported that Tiyani Mabunda has made a spectacular return to Chloorkop to take up a new job as club ambassador just three days after leaving Mamelodi Sundowns.
Mabunda, 33, announced his tearful resignation from the club earlier this week following eight tremendously successful seasons in which he won five league titles and the CAF Champions League, among other accolades.
“For me, to be the ambassador of Mamelodi Sundowns is a great honour because they have recognised my efforts and they have given me an opportunity to carry on with what has been initiated,” said Mabunda.
