MBABANE – “Justice is not in our coach’s plans for the season.”
This was revealed by TS Galaxy Media Officer Minenhle Mkhize, concerning
Eswatini international player Justice ‘Figa’ Figuereido’s future with the
DStv Premiership side in the 2022/23 season. Mkhize said the former Denver
Sundowns enterprising winger returned to the ‘Rockets’, as the
Mpumalanga-based outfit are fondly known, after his loan spell with Cape Town
All Stars expired at the end of the past season. “He was part of the team’s
pre-season preparations under the watchful eyes of our coach Sead Ramovic, who
after his assessment felt that Justice was not in plans for the new season,”
Mkhize said. When asked about the former national team player’s link to DStv
Premiership rookies Richards Bay, Mkhize denied knowledge of the interest.

“As you know that the registration window is still open; we are looking for a
team that we can loan him to, where he can get game time,” he said. He also
said once they were done scouting for the player a team that they could loan him
to, they would release a statement. Meanwhile, ‘Figa’ had a wonderful season
with ‘Igugu leKapa’, as Cape Town All Stars are affectionately known. The
former Sihlangu forward scored four goals, including the one he scored against
Swallows in the Premier Soccer League/National First Division play-offs. No
immediate comment could be drawn from ‘Figa’ as he did not reply to a
WhatsApp message sent at 2:08pm.
