Mpandle hails former Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper Fernandez's impact at Maritzburg United

Maritzburg United goalkeeper Bongani Mpandle has hailed the presence of former Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper Ronwen Fernandez, saying the legend is a humble individual.

The Team of Choice announced the former Bafana Bafana keeper’s appointment last week and the 28-year-old says Fernandez’s achievements attest to his personality.

With Mpandle set to compete for the number one spot with Orlando Pirates reported target Richard Ofori next season, he insists they have to learn as quickly as possible from the Johannesburg-born legend.
