Speaking after their goalless draw against TS Galaxy, AmaZulu head coach Brandon Truter said he is still hoping to making a couple of additions to the squad.
While Usuthu have already welcomed a whole lot of new players, many who featured in the game against Galaxy, Truter has said he would like to still get one or two more players, with the arrival of Ramahlwe Mphahlele expected to be confirmed soon.
Truter did say, however, it would be up to the board if those signings would be made, and the club will make announcements.
“One or two. One or two more,” Truter told the media after the game.
“We’ll see, but the club will make announcements about that. As a coach, I can recommend but ultimately, it has to get approved by a board.”
Overall Truter was pleased with some of his new signings.
“I I know what I can get from Gaba (Mhango), George (Maluleka) has shown today his experience, when the going got tough in the midfield, we kept it together in there as well,” Truter said.
“(Thendo) Mukumela had a bit of a baptism of fire with Linda Mbatha, but it came around there. as well. But it’s early days, it’s his first game in the PSL as well, he’s a quality player, so everybody will get better.
“Like I said, now we still have (Thembela) Sikhakhane on the bench, we have (Mbongiseni) Gumede who can play at right back, and we might have one or two new additions to the squad looking forward.
“But it’s a quality squad. It’s the first game, nerves, jitters, maybe not starting right mentally as well. There’s so much more that we can give, and so much better that we can do today.”
