Nyundu pulls interest from Norway

Cape Town - Roggert Nyundu could be on his way to Norwegian side FK Haugesund after a great season with Black Leopards in the NFD.

The striker was deemed surplus to requirements at Polokwane City and says that there is no chance of a return to the PSL side due to the way he was treated but he suggests that a wide range of teams are in demand of his services.

“There are seven clubs in total, four ABSA Premiership clubs and three National First Division teams," he told Football411.

"Unfortunately, I can’t mention the clubs. We just need to wait and see.

“I’m also looking at an offer from oversees so if it does materialise I will journey out on Wednesday this week. The club is in Norway; FK Haugesund.”

When asked about a possible return to his parent club Polokwane City he was categorical on his decision against doing so.

“I don’t think it’s possible. They showed that they don’t care. I cannot complain much, because only God knows what he is doing. I don’t think there is a chance of me going back there,”

The striker did not, however, rule out the option of staying on in Thohoyandou after enjoying a good season there.

“I had a great journey with Leopards even though we didn’t get promoted. I was happy because I had a chance to prove to all of South Africa that I can score goals. It’s just unfortunate we didn’t get promoted.

“If the offer is good, then I can move to Leopards permanently because they showed me love.

“They showed me that they are willing to give me a chance to play football. As footballer, you need play so that you will enjoy your career.”

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