Bafana Bafana midfielder Bongani Zungu believes Haashim Domingo is a great addition to the Mamelodi Sundowns squad and would fit in perfectly with coach Pitso Mosimane's style.

Zungu played alongside the Ajax Cape Town academy product at Portuguese outfit Guimaraes, before Domingo returned to South Africa to sign for Bidvest Wits in 2018.

Now the 24-year-old is expected to sign for Sundowns following Wits's sale to Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila (TTM), and Zungu reckons he will be a great asset for the Brazilians.

"I spoke to him today to congratulate him for signing for Mamelodi (Sundowns) and one thing that stood out is that he said, 'I'm not going to relax, I still want to go back to Europe'," Zungu told KickOff.

"And I told him that's the spirit, he's still young. That guy is one of the best talents in South Africa, trust me.

"He's got the energy, he's got the drive, he's got the discipline and he's a good guy. He's just the player Pitso needs because you can't play for Pitso if you don't run as Pitso always says.

"This is a quality transfer move from Sundowns, they have signed a top player and I can tell you now that he's going to do well. I wish him all the best because signing for Sundowns comes with being famous and I hope that doesn't change him.

"But he's a good boy, very respectful and I talk to him. He normally asks me for advice and stuff and he's honestly one of my favourite players.

"It's a step forward for him. He came back (home) because he's still young and playing for Sundowns he's now going to be exposed to (CAF Champions League in) Africa. I hope he performs so that within the next year or two, he's back in Europe."
