Ex-Sundowns star explains why he forced a move to Pirates
Briefly News earlier reported that a former Mamelodi Sundowns striker has explained why he forced a move to Orlando Pirates in the early stages of his career.
The former South African international was playing his club football in Europe, but decided to move back home because of one reason.
He ended up joining the Sea Robbers on loan but his move to the Soweto giants was not made permanent as his parent club demand was too high for the PSL side.
