Ndlovu Reveals Reason For One-Year Contract Risk

Ndlovu Reveals Reason For One-Year Contract Risk

JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA - SEPTEMBER 17: Siphesihle Ndlovu of SuperSport United and Keagan Dolly of Kaizer Chiefs during the DStv Premiership match between Kaizer Chiefs and SuperSport United at FNB Stadium on September 17, 2022 in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Siphesihle Ndlovu has opened up on his decision to accept a one-year deal at SuperSport United, which is due to expire at the end of June. 

Ndlovu's deal with the Tshwane outfit has an option to extend for another season, but he has confirmed to the Siya crew that the club is yet to indicate if they will keep him beyond the expiration of his contract in June.

The player, though, had no problem accepting a one-year deal because he was focused on rediscovering his passion for the game after struggling to break into the team on a regular basis at Orlando Pirates.

"Definitely it's something that you'd want as a player. You can't rely on a one-year deal. But a one-year deal for me was to make sure that I bring myself up, which is why we agreed on a one-year deal, so that if they are happy with me, then we negotiate going forward. That was the main reason for me to come here and sign a one-year deal," Ndlovu told the Siya crew. 

"At the moment, there is nothing, but I am hoping for the best. I'd definitely want to stay here. It would be a good thing for me to stay here (in Gauteng) because it's a bit far from home (Pietermaritzburg), which is a good thing."

During the times he was not playing at Pirates, Ndlovu admitted that there were times when it would frustrate him. 

"Sometimes it gets to a point where you get frustrated, because you would work extra hard and get no reward. Sometimes you get frustrated and you get sluggish. But as a footballer, you need to try to make sure your mind is strong and keep pushing until you get your chance. When you get your chance, that's when you grab it. It's like you proving them wrong in why they didn't play you."
