Divine Lunga’s agent Mike Makaab has reacted to the player’s first appearance of the season.

Lunga featured in Mamelodi Sundowns first XI against Orlando Pirates on Saturday.

He played as a left-back and put on a great performance in the entire ninety minutes as they drew 1-1.

Reacting to Divine’s first appearance, Makaab said: “So pleased for Divine Lunga. He’s waited for this opportunity. A top footballer.”

Lunga had spent the first half of the season being frozen out as the club wanted to register him as a local player.

He was linked with an exit during the January transfer window but this was dismissed by his agent.
