South African giants Mamelodi Sundowns interested in Hungary based Nigerian
South Africa's Premier Soccer League giants Mamelodi Sundowns have enquired about the availability of Hungary-based Nigerian midfielder Vincent Onovo, according to a report from South African Media firm, Soccer Laduma.
Onovo plays for Ujpest FC in the NB 1, the top level of the Hungarian football league system.
It is his second spell at the club. Onovo first left Ujpest for Danish side Randers in 2021 after a three-year stay with the Purples.
Downs are planning to deal with their foreign quota for the 2022/23 season as they currently have all the five spots permitted per PSL club per season occupied, sources in Nigeria have confirmed to the Siya crew that Onovo is one of the players whose names have been discussed at the former African champions.
“There is interest from Sundowns in Vincent Onovo. He is Nigerian midfielder who currently plays in Hungary. Enquiries have been made on the player’s availability though there isn’t anything agreed to at the moment between the two clubs,” said the source to Soccer Laduma.
The deal may also be a complicating one for Mamelodi Sundowns, too. The 12-time Premier Soccer League winners have filled their five foreign quotas for the 2022/23 season as permitted per PSL club per season.
How the former African champions plan to incorporate Onovo into that setup is not yet clear.
Mamelodi Sundowns are one of the biggest clubs in South Africa, with the Brazilians winning the CAF Champions League in 2016, alongside several other domestic honours.
