Manqoba Mngqithi has high hopes for Mamelodi Sundowns youngster Kutlwano Letlhaku

The 18-year-old made his debut for the Brazilians in the Nedbank Cup last season and he has already played three times this campaign. Letlhaku, who joined Sundowns from the School of Excellence, first played 20 minutes of the CAF Champions League 4-0 win over Mbana Swallows as well as featuring in both legs of the MTN8 semi-final defeat to Stellenbosch. He also netted his first senior goal after coming off the bench in the Carling Knockout last 16 5-0 rout of Golden Arrows this past weekend. Mngqithi said in the Citizen: "I must say that he's one for the future and I believe he's got a lot to offer. "He hasn't done what I think he's capable of in terms of him scoring in official matches because he has scored some very good goals in pre-season "Unfortunately, in official matches, he hasn't been as brave to take these opportunities because he's got a brilliant left foot and we still expect a lot from him. He's a very good player in one against one cutting into the box. "There's still a lot more that I expect from him. I'm excited to see that his teammates do feel that maybe giving him a little bit of a boost is going to take him to the next level because he's going to be very important for the team going forward."

La Liga eye December FC Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid clash in Miami

Spanish top-flight sources first indicated a desire to take the match to Miami back in August and according to reports the league remain keen to press ahead. The game is scheduled for matchday 18, where all matches are currently set for December 22 ahead of television picks, but will require FIFA approval. FIFA said in May it would set up a working group to look at a revised legal framework for taking domestic league matches overseas, but has not provided any public updates since. Football's world governing body first said it was considering changing its authorisation rules on such matches following a settlement it agreed with Relevent Sports in a court case in the United States in April. Relevent has been seeking to host competitive league games in the US, including La Liga matches. On the back of the settlement, La Liga president Javier Tebas said he hoped to be able to take matches to the US for the 2025-26 season but the league is understood to still be working on making the Barcelona-Atletico match happen this season. The Premier League's chief executive Richard Masters has said there are no plans to take English top-flight matches overseas.
