Supersport United will be looking to bounce back when they host Chippa United in a league match at Lucas Moripe stadium in Atteridgeville tomorrow night (kick-off 8pm).

The former Baroka FC and Orlando Pirates striker confirmed that Sundowns has approached Wits enquiring about his services as they look to find Emiliano Tade’s replacement after failing to land Knowledge Musona’s signature.

Meanwhile, Motupa says it’s a good thing that he’s been linked with Mamelodi Sundowns as they have been winning titles in the past few seasons and are also one of the top teams on the continent.

For the past six seasons, Sundowns has always finished in the top two in the league and also competed regularly in the CAF Champions’ League group stages under Mosimane.

To be announced as the December coach of the month when he’s away with his team on continental duty talks to the level Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Pitso Mosimane is operating at.

Even last month, Sundowns had a hectic programme, winning the Telkom Knockout beating Maritzburg United in Durban, drawing away to Wydad Casablanca in Morocco and coming to beat Stellenbosch FC 3-1 at home.

Motupa who joined Wits from Chippa United says when he joined the club last season Hunt asked him to score at least eight goals and he went on to score 11 goals in 25 matches.

Nurkovic is now on 10 goals in 18 matches in the league, he’s became the first Chiefs player to reach double figures in the league since Bernard Parker’s 10 goals in the 2013/2014 season.

Kaizer Chiefs striker Samir Nurkovic’s first goal against Bloemfontein Celtic where he scored a hat-trick during the 5-3 win also won the goal of the month award.

Bidvest Wits striker Gift Motupa says his work rate has improved and he’s crediting head coach Gavin Hunt for that.
