The South African coach claimed Usuthu needs new strikers as they've been struggling with goals this season. The KwaZulu-Natal giants have just two goals in their last three league games.

Nigerian striker Etiosa Ighodaro is the club's highest goalscorer, scoring just three goals, which shows why they need new top strikers in their squad.

"I think it's a worrying department; as you're speaking, maybe Junior didn't have one of the best matches today, and we ended up using Moremi, who is a winger, as a striker who did very well because we identified that he is having that uptight of using those spaces he might do well as a striker," Kanu said.
"It is a worrying aspect, as you're saying, that we are still looking for a striker because even in our next match, Igo will be available, but we can't rely on one person. Junior may be having a rough time; he will bounce back."
