Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Miguel Cardoso reportedly remains confident in Monnapule Saleng's abilities and believes the talented winger still has plenty to offer the Brazilians despite the challenges surrounding his time at Chloorkop.
The Portuguese tactician is said to have maintained his faith in the former Orlando Pirates star, who is expected to receive another opportunity to feature for Sundowns after the international break.
Saleng's situation has attracted considerable attention among South African football supporters, particularly those who are eager to see him rediscover the form that made him one of the most exciting attacking players in the Premier Soccer League.
The winger previously enjoyed an impressive spell at Orlando Pirates, where his pace, creativity, dribbling ability and eye for goal made him an important figure in the Buccaneers' attacking department.
His performances earned him widespread recognition and established him as one of the most dangerous wide attackers in South African football.
However, his move to Mamelodi Sundowns has presented a different challenge, as he looks to establish himself in a squad filled with quality players competing for limited positions.
Despite the competition, Cardoso reportedly believes Saleng has the necessary qualities to make a difference and has not given up on the winger's potential.
The expected opportunity after the international break could therefore become an important moment for the 28-year-old as he attempts to demonstrate his readiness and convince the technical team that he deserves more regular playing time.
For Saleng, the challenge will be to take advantage of any opportunity that comes his way by producing consistent performances and contributing to the team's attacking play.
Sundowns supporters will also be hoping to see the winger regain his confidence and reproduce the exciting football that made him a household name during his time at Orlando Pirates.
If he manages to rediscover his best form, he could become another valuable attacking option for Cardoso as the Brazilians continue their pursuit of success in domestic and continental competitions.
For now, all eyes will be on Saleng's expected return to action after the international break, with supporters waiting to see whether he can turn his potential into consistent performances at Chloorkop.
