Sundowns’ new signing, Thembinkosi Lorch, also known as ‘Nyoso’, has been making waves in a recent training session that was captured on video and shared on social media.
The spotlight was on Lorch as his coach, Rhulani Mokwena, gave him specific instructions to focus on his positioning on the field.
Mokwena, who previously worked with Lorch at Orlando Pirates, emphasised the importance of Lorch spending more time in the central midfield rather than drifting out wide.
