Manqoba Mngqithi has shed light on Mamelodi Sundowns’ player recruitment process, revealing the sole player he personally requested to sign.
Mngqithi Reveals Iqraam Rayners as His Only Signing at Sundowns
Speaking to Robert Marawa on MSW, Mngqithi revealed that Iqraam Rayners was the only player he signed at Sundowns.
“I don’t want to come out on this platform and say I didn’t know anything [about player recruitments]. I’d be lying; I don’t want to lie,” Mngqithi said.
“Yes, this initiative [of Flemming having a say on signing players] started before me. So when I got the opportunity, the only player that I personally requested from the club was Iqraam Rayners.
“That one is the player I personally requested, and I pushed. Fortunately, I got support from a lot of people in the club; that’s why it happened, and I appreciate that.”
The highly-rated forward made a high-profile switch from Stellenbosch FC to the Brazilians in August 2024.
