‘Every fan in South Africa will tell you’ Teko believes Pirates can challenge Sundowns

Former Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder TekoThe Brazilians have just clinched their seventh straight DStv Premiership earlier this month. The scary thing is that Rulani Mokwena’s side doesn’t show signs of declining. With the 37-year-old expected to be at the helm for another four years, Sundowns can dominate for another half a decade at least.

Teko Modise played for both Pirates and Sundowns during his 16-year career. The former Bafana Bafana star says the Buccaneers have a squad capable of challenging Bafana Ba Style. “I think every fan in South Africa will tell you that because I think from a squad balance point of view, I think Pirates have a balanced squad and I think they have every right to be able to challenge Mamelodi Sundowns in the league,” Modise said as per“I mean, you look at Stellenbosch for the fact that they’ve been toying with that number two position and you look at the squad number, you look at the young players that they have, they don’t have the large squad number that Pirates have.

“But I strongly believe that Orlando Pirates should be the team automatically challenging Mamelodi Sundowns for the league,” said Teko. In 2011, Modise made a big career move when he switched from Pirates to Sundowns. He played his best football with the Sea Robbers winning back-to-back Footballer of the Year awards. At Downs, Modise re-emerged helping the Brazilians to two league titles and a CAF Champions League title.last week said Downs’ dominance would come to an end next season.“They are quality and good for the club. If we can just continue like this even next season then we can Sundowns for the league title.
