Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena has revealed that Moroccan defender Abdelmounaim Boutouil is available for selection for their Caf Champions League second round against La Passe at Loftus on Sunday.
Boutouil, 24, who arrived at Chloorkop last month from Moroccan Botola Pro side SCC Mohammédia, may be given his debut against the Seychelles minnows.
Sundowns have recruited Chilean Marcelo Allende, Boutouil, Bongani Zungu, Sipho Mbule, Ronwen Williams, Terrence Mashego and Ethiopian Abubeker Nasir to build depth in their squad as they look to recapture the Champions League trophy. Sundowns started the season on a positive note as they are sitting on top of the DStv Premiership standings after nine games and they are in the semifinal stage of the MTN8.
Cape Town City are also in Champions League action this weekend against Petro Atletico of Angola and Mokwena said coach Eric Tinkler’s side is capable of getting the result against the team that knocked out Sundowns last season.
