Moses: I am excited to show the world my ability

Former Chiefs and Sundowns defender Tristan Moses


Tristan Moses says he is excited for what lies ahead in his career after parting ways with Mamelodi Sundowns.

The 23-year-old joined the Brazilians from Kaizer Chiefs in 2018 and has spent the past few seasons playing for the club’s reserve team.

He was unable to make a breakthrough into the Sundowns first side and has since moved on in search of first-team opportunities.

Moses told Soccer Laduma: “My contract came to an end in June with Sundowns. That’s where I am at right now.”

He added: “I am excited for the opportunity to show South Africa, to show the world my ability, you know what I mean? At the end of the day, you need a chance to play. I obviously want to be playing regularly in the PSL, game in and out, and show my qualities.

“To be surrounded by quality players helps you to grow. Unfortunately, I did not get my chance to play in the PSL with Sundowns and that’s okay. That’s football.

“But obviously I need to play, and I need a chance. I need a chance to show my qualities on the pitch and that’s what I am looking forward – playing at the highest level and competing. I am a competitor. I want to win and I want to achieve.

“When I do get my chance and opportunity to compete, I am going to take it with both hands and run with it.”
