"It's a permanent deal," Sukazi tells snl24.com/kickoff.

"I am happy with the way Mamelodi Sundowns handled the whole deal and it showed maturity on their side in terms such kind of deals.

"It's a chance for him to resurrect his career and do what he likes most, which is to play football. We have allowed an environment where we will play football with no pressure. The only contribution he can do to the team is his talent."

The 24-year-old rose to prominence in the Multichoice Diski Challenge and was touted as the next big star to emerge from Chloorkop development academy.

However, loan stints to Black Leopards and Richards Bay FC failed to bear any fruit and the winger found himself on the sidelines of the Downs first team.
