Players who failed to reach full potential :: Mmegi Online

The local game has witnessed the emergence of some supremely talented players, despite the flashes of brilliance, some have failed to reach the full heights. Mmegi Sport Staff Writer, CHAKALISA DUBE looks at some of the gifted players who were tipped for greatness but never really lived up to expectation

Mwampule Masule

Masule made a dream switch when he joined Township Rollers in 2010 from Kazungula Young Fighters. He did excel at some point in his career, especially in the 2013-14 season when he was voted the Mascom Top 8 goalkeeper of the tournament. Masule was also voted Player of the Season and Supporters’ Player of the Season in the 2013-14 season, an indication of the abundance in talent in him. Since then, Masule has never really blossomed, despite his potential. It appears everything has gone horribly wrong for the 29-year old goalkeeper in recent times. This season he was signed by Orapa United but was released for ‘lack of discipline and poor attitude’. Orapa had signed him in the off-season from South African Premier Soccer League (PSL) , Chippa United where he was released after six months without kicking a ball. He had signed for Chippa from Rollers. Masule now finds himself club-less.
