Manzini has not seen much game-time since Middendorp took over the coaching reins at Celtic and the striker is already being linked with a move away from Siwelele next season.
The Phunya Sele Sele coach tells snl24.com/kickoff there is no bad blood between him and Manzini and is hoping the player will get his chance very soon.
“We go with regularly what we see in training and during the week how players are performing, and if they are ready to play. I don't make decisions, the players make decision with their performance," says Middendorp.
“I have the impression that he is not doing what we want and if that's the case it doesn't matter who the player is, he will be left behind. It is just not his week, not his days now, and I hope he will come back and help us."
