GREEN Fuel coach, Rodwell Dhlakama’s ability to redirect players’ paths will be tested again this season.
The Chisumbanje side appear to have taken heed of the call from Joel Luphahla for someone to rescue the career of Adrian Silla.
Club chairman, Fred Moyo, confirmed to Zimpapers Sport that they have agreed a one-year loan deal with CAPS United.
“We have finally agreed with CAPS United for a loan deal not because we don’t want to keep him here for a long time, but that’s the best way to keep him on his toes.
“We don’t want him to relax because once he signs a long-term deal, he will not make any effort to impress his coaches to extend his stay.
“He’s talented and everyone knows what he can do once he gets into his zone,” said Moyo.
Silla’s contract with Makepeke is expected to end at the end of this season.
He got limited game time last season at CAPS United due to unknown reasons.
He featured less than seven times for the Green Machine.
Dhlakama believes Silla still has more to offer.
Silla said he was not going to let down the club, particularly Dhlakama.
“I want to thank coach Dhlakama for giving me this chance, it means a lot to me,” said Silla.
“I’m feeling at home and I think this environment is going to help me regain everything I have lost in the past few seasons.
“It’s a fresh start for me and I’m not under any pressure. I’m just going to try to enjoy football while helping the team achieve its objectives for this season.”
