Maboe, who spent the previous campaign on loan at city rivals SuperSport United, is reportedly not part of coach Miguel Cardoso’s plans. The 30-year-old is believed to have one year remaining on his current contract with the Brazilians.

Options for Sundowns’ Maboe

While another loan spell at SuperSport United has not been completely ruled out, Mgosi Squad understands that newly promoted Betway Premiership side Durban City are keen to secure the services of the experienced midfielder.

Durban City, formerly known as Maritzburg United, is where Maboe made a name for himself before securing a move to Sundowns in 2018. According to a source close to Sundowns, the player is not in the club’s plans for the upcoming campaign, and another loan move is considered likely.
