Ntuli grateful for loan move

Striker Bonginkosi Ntuli has thanked Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Pitso Mosimane for sanctioning his loan move to Platinum Stars.

Ntuli, 24, spent the second half of last season on loan at AmaZulu after finding his first-team opportunities limited under Mosimane in the first half of the Premiership campaign.

And, with his first-team prospects not expected to improve in the season ahead, Ntuli was recently given the green light to link up with Cavin Johnson's side.

It's a decision that Ntuli appreciates, and he is now looking to make the most of his time with Dikwena.

He told Goal: "I am feeling happy to join a new club and I hope I get a chance to play regularly like at AmaZulu last season.

"The coach (Pitso Mosimane) has decided to loan me out again. So, credit to him and I am happy to be here at Platinum Stars.

"He (Johnson) is a good coach. I hope he understands my style of play."

When quizzed on whether he expected to stay at Platinum Stars beyond the end of his loan spell, Ntuli added: "No, there is no option to purchase.

"I am going straight back to Sundowns at the end of the season."

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
