Midfielder Powell Abednico believes he can contribute immensely to Township Rollers' championship ambitions after he joined the be MOBILE Premier League leaders from Extension Gunners this week. The player has been on the sidelines due to wrangling over his services. But he is confident of regaining the form that made him a household name while at ECCO City Greens.

"You might say I am a slow player who relies heavily on physical strength and good passing but I can fit into any team. Maybe Rollers have been looking for such a player who could win the ball and release the speedy wingers to launch attacks," Abednico said.

He told Mmegi Sport that his former team, ECCO were also keen on having him back but Rollers put up a better offer. The 24-year-old midfield maestro who once had a short stint at South Africa's Bay United said it was important to make a move that would benefit his career rather than to remain loyal to certain individuals. "I need to make the most out of my career while I am still young. I have been frustrated for the last few months without playing. I needed to see myself playing and Rollers offers me such an opportunity," he said.
