Why it made sense bringing Orlando Pirates utility player Tlolane to Maritzburg United - Tinkler

Maritzburg United head coach Erick Tinkler has explained why the club signed utility-player Tebogo Tlolane.

The 25-year-old player recently completed a sixth-month loan move from Orlando Pirates to the Team of Choice.

Tinkler, who is a former Pirates coach, has reunited with Tlolane having worked with him at Chippa United.

"We were looking to strengthen in a certain area. A box-to-box type of midfielder. High work-rate," Tinkler told the media.

"I worked with him at Chippa. He has that. His versatility because he can in a number of positions.
