Mohau Nkota quickly found himself sharing laughs with Champions League winner Gini Wijnaldum. Now 34, Wijnaldum earned cult status at Liverpool by scoring in crucial matches and collecting silverware that includes the Premier League, Champions League, Club World Cup, and UEFA Super Cup.

With 96 international caps and 28 goals for the Netherlands, he brings immense experience. Nkota also joins Moussa Dembélé, who previously played for PSG, Fulham, Lyon, and Atlético Madrid. One South African X user even joked that Nkota and Wijnaldum might have been chatting in Afrikaans — and maybe they were!

Monyane is determined to be a success with Chiefs

Meanwhile, Thabiso Monyane appears optimistic about his fresh start with Kaizer Chiefs. Although it’s still unclear whether the move will bring him the trophy success he’s hoping for, he’s likely to enjoy more time on the pitch after slipping down the pecking order at Orlando Pirates behind Deano van Rooyen and Thabiso Lebitso.
