According to a source at the club, Manyisa has failed to impress the owners and is set to be axed by the club during the upcoming Christmas break.

“His situation is not good and I don’t think he will be back with the club after the Christmas break. I have heard that the bosses are not happy,” a source told Phakaaathi regarding the former Orlando Pirates star.

“Manyisa signed for the GladAfrica Championship new-boys at the beginning of the season with much fanfare. But he has not made much of an impact and now the club are considering offloading him.” the publication added.

After leaving Orlando Pirates in 2017, Oupa Manyisa spent three injury plagued years at Mamelodi Sundowns.
