“I had already spoken to Lyle before I went there through my friend during the pre-season. Going there was just about meeting up with him for the first time and having a chat in Afrikaans, for example. That was a bit of an unusual situation but it was nice being able to have that conversation,” said Maluka.

“Lyle has got a lot to give to the game. He’s just getting started, I feel. He is a very key player for the team and he’s going to score a lot more goals in the season. I don’t know how many he can score but he’s a player that as long as he is on the field he can deliver. You can expect goals from him and he’s an important player for the team and it’s nice to see him taking the opportunity and doing this well,” the ex-professional footballer added.
