As confirmed by the Sea Robbers, the 30-year-old Mako has come out of the dark shadows of a knee ligament injury since October 2023.

“I’m so excited to be back on the field. The journey wasn’t easy but I’m eager to rejoin the team and contribute to the team’s success,” said Mako, as quoted by FARPost.

“It’s time to push myself; I’m ready to give my all again. Thanks to everyone who encouraged and supported me during my recovery,” the Orlando Pirates left-back concluded.
