Mamelodi Sundowns will reshuffle their squad again, with up to 10 players to leave or be loaned out – including all three foreigners not in the first team. 

Sundowns are keen to offload many of the reserve team players with first-team contracts.  
  
Word is that Nigerian midfielder Solomon Okpako, who has battled for regular game-time since joining at the beginning of the season, will be part of that list.
  
Also due to leave though on loan is Zimbabwean striker Simba Sithole who has battled to break through into the team despite being registered as one of the club’s five foreigners this season.
  
Fellow Zimbabwean Lionel Mutizwa, whose injury at the beginning of the season led to him not being registered, will also be let go, although there have to be negotiations about his contract, which is still running.
The duo of Tshepo Ramokala and Lucky Nguzana will definitely leave at the end of the season.

 
The club is also considering letting go of Innocent Mdledle, while the interest in out-of-favour defender Ramahlwe Mphahlele might tempt the club to let him go.
 
Mphahlele has attracted the attention of Platinum Stars, SuperSport United and Bloemfontein Celtic.
  
Further word from within the club is that one “big name player” could be let go if the club finds a way of selling him, as he is no longer giving his best for the club.
  
The player in question has not made as much of a contribution as was expected this season, with his body language reportedly “no longer being that of a hungry player”.
