Stellenbosch hope to hang on to Sundowns loanee Asekho Tiwani

Stellenbosch hope to hang on to Sundowns loanee Asekho Tiwani

Tiwani, a mainstay in Stellies' defensive line, has featured in ten matches across all competitions since joining from Sundowns in the January transfer window. His consistent performances have made him a vital part of the team's backline and a fan favourite.

Stellenbosch are also looking to keep Tshegofatso Mabasa, who has made five appearances, starting twice, and scoring once since his loan move from Orlando Pirates.

Both players initially moved to the Cape Winelands side due to limited playing time at their parent clubs, and retaining them is viewed as essential for maintaining the squad's cohesion and competitiveness.

"So, Mabasa is not our player, he's on loan, again, it could be a discussion with Orlando Pirates and with Mabasa," said Benadie.

"Tiwani is also on loan from Mamelodi Sundowns. We like what he's doing for us, and I think he's got a lot more chances of playing in our team than in Mamelodi Sundowns team.

"So, maybe we can have a good discussion with them because this type of player, he's young, he needs to play whether it's for us or another club.

"So, I'm hoping that we can have a nice discussion with Sundowns, if they're not going to use him a lot, then maybe he can stay in our club."
