Sundowns Target Two New Signings to Strengthen Their Squad

Mamelodi Sundowns are reportedly working on plans to strengthen their squad with two new players as the club looks to maintain its competitiveness in domestic and continental football.

One of the players attracting attention is young midfielder Lazola Maku, who has recently completed a move to the Tshwane giants after an impressive period with South Africa’s Under-20 national team, Amajita.

Maku’s journey to Chloorkop has been interesting. The 19-year-old previously played for Siwelele FC before leaving the club following the expiry of his contract. He subsequently travelled to Austria, where he was assessed by several clubs as he searched for an opportunity to continue his development in European football.

However, his involvement with Amajita at the COSAFA Under-20 Youth Championships provided another opportunity to showcase his abilities.

Maku played an important role in South Africa’s successful campaign, helping the national team lift the trophy in Mozambique. His performances attracted attention, with his quality and potential making him an interesting prospect for several clubs.

Mamelodi Sundowns eventually moved to secure his services, officially announcing his signing on October 20, 2026. The midfielder joined the club as a free agent after leaving Siwelele.

The youngster is viewed as a player with considerable potential who could develop into an important member of the Sundowns squad in the coming years.

However, he will have to work hard to earn regular playing time because the Brazilians already have several experienced midfielders competing for positions.

The reported plan to bring in another player also suggests that Sundowns are continuing to assess their options as they look to improve the depth and quality of their squad.

For head coach Miguel Cardoso, having a strong squad is important because the team is competing on several fronts and needs enough quality players to handle the demands of a busy season.

Sundowns supporters will be interested to see how Maku adapts to life at Chloorkop and whether the club completes its plans to bring in another signing.

With his promising performances at youth international level, the young midfielder will be hoping to make the most of this opportunity and establish himself at one of South Africa’s biggest clubs.

Latest update: Sundowns officially announced Lazola Maku’s arrival on October 20, 2026. His signing is confirmed, while the identity and status of the reported second target remain unclear.
