Shalulile tipped for greatness
Many believe that in-form Highlands Park FC and Brave Warriors forward Peter Shalulile can be a force to be reckoned with this season.
The Namibian international, who scored seven goals during the 2018/19 season, has so far netted three goals in three matches for his South African club this season.
Shalulile's form comes at the right time when the national team plays Eritrea in the World Cup qualifiers preliminary round next month.
National teammates and coaches expressed joy over the work ethic of Shalulile.
Brave Warriors assistant coach Woody Jacobs said that the player is vital for the national team.
“Peter is a vital player for the Brave Warriors because he is a consistent performer for club and country. He has shown over the years that he can do great things and we just hope that he stays injury free and also bring his current form to the national team,” Jacobs said. But many want to see Shalulile bag more goals in national team colours and not just for his club.
“He is a hard worker and a guy who is disciplined on and off the field. Shalulile is definitely destined for great things because scoring three goals in three matches in the PSL is not an easy thing,” Golden Arrows goalkeeper Maximilian Mbaeva said.
Shalulile has been a prolific scorer for his club since the 2017/18 season when he shared the golden boot with Black Leopards' Mwape Musonda after scoring 15 goals for his club.
It was a season where he was also voted Players' Player of the Year in the First Division.
He has however faced several injury setbacks which often came when he was at his best form.
“Shalulile has the potential to become the best in the PSL because of his work ethic. He makes a good teammate because one can always rely on him when you need energy in the team,” Brave Warriors defender Tiberius Lombard said.
