Outgoing Mamelodi Sundowns starlet Cassius Mailula believes the Brazilians are one of the best teams on the continent.

The 22-year-old has signed a three-year-deal at MLS side Toronto FC following a stunning breakthrough season at Chloorkop.

While Rhulani Mokwena’s side are a dominant team of play, Mailula believes the off-field environment is what actually makes them special.

“Even the change rooms, the guys are amazing. How we are United. The love there, it’s out of this world.” Cassius Mailula said as quoted by FarPost.

“That’s why I think it’s one the best clubs in Africa. Those guys work hard, they help each other, and they are great human beings.

“That’s one of the reasons why the team is always successful is because the players always put the team first.”

Chippa United coach Morgan Mammila is not losing sleep ahead of his side’s clash against Kaizer Chiefs in next weekend’s DStv Premiership opener.

According to Mammila, Chiefs are ‘very easy to play against’, which makes preparations for the match simple.

Molefi Ntseki will take charge of his maiden official game come next weekend after being promoted to head coach at Naturena.

But Mammila is not expecting Ntseki to bring anything new to Kaizer Chiefs.
