Midfielder Sibongiseni' Ox' Mthethwa could play his first match for new Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi when Amakhosi face Mamelodi Sundowns on Saturday, 28 September 2024.

Coach Nabi said the player has qualities that can be used by the Soweto giants, who are looking to continue their perfect start to the season.

During the recent transfer window, Ox was linked with a move away from Amakhosi, but a switch to AmaZulu or Chippa United failed to materialise.

Nabi speaks about Mthethwa in the tweet below:

According to Soccer Laduma, Nabi wants to make the most of his squad, while Chiefs legend Brian Baloyi backed the side to beat Sundowns.

Nabi said:

"We are all part of a group. Mthethwa has particular qualities, and I don't know, but after today, he could start in the Sundowns match. But I don't want to talk too much about one player; I want to talk about the entire group."

Fans question Ox's abilities

Local football fans asked on social media if Ox could deliver for Chiefs, while others said the player must work hard to prove his doubters wrong.

Itumeleng Kagiso Marera says Mthethwa must improve:

"He needs to improve his game. This back passing will put him on the sidelines."

"He can still get a run, but he just needs to work a bit harder. So many players were also in his situation, but they convinced coaches to get game time."

Africa Arise Khumalo feels for Mthethwa:

"This guy was never properly developed, and that's sad. Everyone can see he is a good player, but little can be done when you lack the fundamentals."

Robert Nsimbhi Ya Mjarimani noted the player's downfall:

"From hero to zero."

Comfort Scara Mashabela asked a question:

"What went wrong with the Ox? He showed a lot of quality and potential at Stellenbosch."
