Mamelodi Sundowns to send Nassir out on loan?

“He has spent most of his time at the club out injured. Even as we speak, now he is injured and missed his country’s encounter against Malawi in the Afcon qualifiers.” an insider told SoccerLaduma.

“So, the team wants to bring in a foreign player who would be fit for most of the time and help the team. They don’t doubt (Ahmed’s) capabilities as a player but he spends a lot of time in the casualty ward at the club.

“So, they have decided or they are planning to loan him out. It’s a decision that the technical team and management have both agreed to so it will not be that difficulty to implement.”
