Aussems tips Makwata for greatness at the den

“John has been brilliant in training and we hope he will be instrumental to our campaign this season. He is a good player with much needed experience and our attacking department was strengthened following his arrival. We keep forging ahead and I know things in the future will look pretty cool for us” he told KBC Sports Digital
