'We found a facility that I think we will start adopting a lot more,' said the Sundowns co-head coach.

Masandawana went to Egypt to play Sudan’s El Merreikh last weekend, and had already decided to stay on because they have another Caf Champions League Group A game against Al Ahly on Saturday. This is how their ‘new home’ was discovered. “It is a facility that has previously been used by teams like Atletico Madrid. It is a facility that allows us to go about with our day-to-day duties like we would do at Chloorkop – it has some very good recovery resources available… These things assist us with making sure that as much as we work hard on the field we can also retain the freshness of the players.
