OLD BOY: Lyle Lakay
Lyle Lakay looks set to rejoin Cape Town City from Mamelodi Sundowns on loan for the rest of the season.
The Citizens sold Terrence Mashego to Downs over the weekend, with reports suggesting that the 31-year-old Lakay is ready to return to the Mother City, after leaving City for Downs in 2018.
Coach Eric Tinkler’s side will need all the numbers they can get - especially after qualifying for the Caf Champions League second preliminary round.

City beat AS Otoho 2-0 on aggregate in their first-round tie after Sunday’s goalless away draw, despite reportedly suffering from underhanded tactics off the field.
City goalkeeper Darren Keet was booked during the match after trying to get back his water bottle and towel after it was removed from his goal by the opposition.
City media officer Julian Bailey also claims they even tried to stop the coaches from entering the changing rooms ahead of the match.
