Teboho Mokoena’s High Praise for Mkhulise
Sundowns and Bafana Bafana star Teboho Mokoena has expressed his admiration for Mkhulise, drawing comparisons to legendary Spanish midfielder Andrés Iniesta.
“I’ve been a huge fan of Siphelele Mkhulise since I first saw him play at Black Leopards,” Mokoena told iDiski Times. “I love how natural and effortless his style is. Watching him train every day, I can see how good he is. He has so much talent.”
Mokoena believes Mkhulise’s abilities are sometimes overlooked, despite the immense potential he sees in his teammate. “Maybe it’s because he’s been at Sundowns for so long, and people don’t always recognize his quality. But I’ve always admired him, even before we became teammates,” Mokoena added.
Describing his style, Mokoena compared Mkhulise to a player like Sipho Mbule or even Iniesta. “He can dribble, pass, and control the game. He’s a joy to watch, whether he’s connecting with defenders, midfielders, or attackers,” Mokoena concluded.
