Jose urges Orlando Pirates star to remain humble

“About Saleng, you know I don’t like to individualise players because they are part of one structure,” the Orlando Pirates coach as quoted by FarPost.

“They have different responsibilities, and I will never highlight or put a spotlight on one player.

“There are also players who are more attractive to the fans of course especially a player like Saleng.

“I mean you can see the way he’s coming week after week. Now what’s key for him and for us also is to stay humble.”
