Its been a while since Warriors legend and Mamelodi Sundowns team manager Peter Ndlovu was spotted on the Masandawana bench, prompting questions as to why that is.<\/p>\n
The former Zimbabwean captain was last seen on the Brazilians\u2019 bench before the novel Covid-19 pandemic brought football to a halt in March.<\/p>\n
An investigation by Soccer24 revealed that the role of the Flying Elephant, as Ndlovu was affectionately known during his illustrious career in gold and green, is now more of a players\u2019 welfare than technical, that is why he no longer sits on the bench.<\/p>\n
Before he left for Egyptian giants Al Ahly, former Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane was making use of a \u2018match analyst\u2019, one whose role was technical hence sat on the bench, meaning Ndlovu\u2019s role was now more of welfare of the players rather than technical.<\/p>\n
Ndlovu still has the same role at Chloorkop in a new system which has three coaches, Rulani Mokwena, Manqoba Mngqithi and Steve Komphela.<\/p>\n
