Quotes At the end of the day, this football thing will come to an end one day, so why not try to experience other countries, football elsewhere and try new things, I am a guy that takes risks ever since I was young. I always want to move and take risks Bongani Zungu: I Want To Experience Football In Other Countries, July 8,2022, Soccer Laduma by SL Writer I made the decision for my own good and my own mental happiness. It wasn’t something deep, but it was just a personal decision I’ve mentioned the importance of being happy and in my time at Sundowns personally, obviously I went back to the club that I was in, I was used to everything and everyone, but at the time mentally I don’t think I was in a good state. And obviously that triggers you because football players are human beings, you have to be happy and put yourself first That is maybe the reason why [I didn’t reach the heights of my first stint]. I can sit here and give you 100 reasons why – but for me it was on me, personally, mentally and maybe that’s why I didn’t reach the Ben10 [times] Right now, that’s where I am mentally. I’m happy to be at AmaZulu. I’ll always be grateful to Sundowns, forever. The president knows that. But this is a new challenge and I’m very happy and I can’t wait to get started. Bongani Zungu opens up on what pushed him out of Sundowns, 20 December,2025, Afrik-Foot,by Joel Oliver It feels great to be back with players I have developed my career alongside. The warm welcome I also received from the fans was really amazing The lifestyle in Europe is different and it helped me in terms of maturity off the pitch. I worked with many good coaches and world class players such as Jermain Defoe. At Amiens, I played against Paris-Saint Germain and those experiences have helped in my development as a player, Before re-signing with Sundowns, I thought about what I wanted to achieve, and the CAF Champions League is something that influenced my decision. The fact that Sundowns is amongst the best football clubs in Africa competing to win the trophy gives me hope that I will achieve my goal. Coach Rulani came to visit me overseas and he had a chat with one of the coaches at Amiens to see how we were training, he has really helped me grow on and off the field. Coach Manqoba is a father figure to me and continuously gives me valuable advice. having played against Kylian Mbappe, I know his capabilities and I’m pretty certain after winning the previous edition he is expected to shine again African teams have never won the FIFA World Cup so it would be amazing for the continent if it were to happen. I’m really looking forward to the tournament kicking off soon. BONGANI ZUNGU:THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME, August, 2012,SDFC, by Zola Doda When I was young in South Africa, growing up, my dad used to speak to me and my brothers about the club. I had an idea of the club, I knew about Rangers. When the team was interested in me, I did my research and realised it is such a huge club. I know quite a few things about the club. I grew up watching the gaffer [Gerrard] and I am very excited to work with him. I know he is going to help my game, help me grow and help me improve my skills Of course, for every player, it is good to play amongst quality players and, for me, it is about coming to add my qualities. As I said, it is very good to have quality around you and players that know what they are doing Instead of having the mentality of competing, I feel very happy and honoured to play amongst the quality players.
