After the signing of strikers Jean Baleke and Prince Dube, it looked like youngster Clement Mzize will have a hard time breaking into coach Miguel Gamondi's first team
But contrary to what many predicted, Mzize has had a good start starting in all three pre-season matches that Yanga played in South Africa
In those matches, Mzize scored one of Yanga's goals in a 4-0 victory against Kaizer Chiefs and Wananchi to win the Toyota Cup
Mzize was one of the players who stood out in the game against Chiefs where his ability surprised even Chiefs fans who have mentioned him a lot in their discussion on social media
Gamondi has made it clear that Mzize is one of the most important players in his squad and he will continue to give him a chance
Speaking in Dar es Salaam after returning from South Africa, Gamondi expressed his satisfaction with the level shown by Mzize especially in the game against Chiefs
"Mzize had a good match against Kaizer Chiefs, I believe he will do more next season, he has shown great potential, he has been fast and calm in goal, he has continued to mature, I believe if he continues to apply himself he will be an important player not only for Yanga but even National team," said Gamondi
Mzize gets a chance to play in front of Yanga's best attacking line made up of Dube, Baleke and Kennedy Musonda who was late to join his colleagues in the pre-season due to family problems
