Loan Arrival and Playing Time

Fiacre Ntwari, a 26-year-old goalkeeper from Rwanda, joined Kruger United on loan from Kaizer Chiefs with a deal valid until the end of the season. Despite his experience, he has not featured in any matches for the club. Souke Dandijou retains his starting role, with Ntwari competing for a place in the squad.

Work Permit Delays

Ntwari was unavailable for Kruger United’s recent match against Amakhosi due to delays in securing his work permit. After obtaining clearance, he was named among the substitutes for games against Marumo Gallants FC and Milford FC but did not enter either match.

Club's Stance on Selection

Sporting director Elasto Kapowezha confirmed Ntwari is registered and available for selection, emphasizing technical decisions over exclusion. 'He has been serving as a deputy to Dandijou and is part of the squad,' Kapowezha stated. The goalkeeper’s future appearances depend on the coaching staff’s assessment, with Dandijou remaining the first-choice option for now.
