Prior to his move abroad to Portuguese outfit Vitória Guimarães, Zungu had worked under Pirates assistant coach Rulani Mokwena at Sundowns and the 25-year-old admits that he wouldn’t mind being re-united with the assistant at Pirates someday.

The evolution of @BonganiZungu08 is interesting. The adaption to a deeper role was hard but we constantly worked on different technical elements! The player saw the vision and look at him now!!

‘I don’t know if I will go back to Sundowns,’ he said on Power FM.

‘I have a good relationship with Rulani and I grew up supporting Pirates. It is a possibility.

‘I had three years at Sundowns. Maybe if Pitso (Mosimane) is there. But Pirates excites me. A young coach. Good new faces,’ he concluded.
