What Could Stellies’ Teen Sensation Offer At Downs?

Stellenbosch FC prodigy Olwethu Makhanya has been linked with Mamelodi Sundowns. Considering that, we check out what the youngster could offer to Masandawana off the pitch... Take a look! 

What's the story?

Coming off a breakthrough 2022/23 season, Stellenbosch teenage sensation Olwethu Makhanya has attracted interest from DStv Premiership champions Mamelodi Sundowns.

Apart from his footballing abilities, Makhanya could add plenty of personality to the Brazilians through his vibrant and youthful style.

Let's take a closer look at Makhanya's drip... 

What can Makhanya offer at Downs?

With players like Lebohang Maboe, Grant Kekana, Aubrey Modiba and Teboho Mokoena, it's safe to say that Masandawana's stars bring the style on and off the pitch.

If Makhanya does make a move to Chloorkop, he'd be expected to do the same and if his style and last season's form is anything to go by, the SA Under-23 international shouldn't have any problems fitting in at Downs.

The 19-year-old has that youthful exuberance about him when it comes to style. The vibrancy seeps through his outfits, showing a taste for sportswear brands adidas and PUMA, and Italian brand Sergio Tacchini.

Makhanya's style is trendy and heavily focused on streetwear, which is expected for a young fashionable baller and it has plenty of room to grow.

The 19-year-old's breakthrough 2022/23 season at Stellies under Steve Barker has seen him garner interest from local and international teams after making more than 20 appearances for the men in maroon during a stellar campaign.

He was also nominated alongside eventual winner Cassius Mailula for Young Footballer of the Year, showing he has a promising future ahead of him.
