Mamelodi Sundowns coach Manqoba Mngqithi has given an update on Ethiopian international Abubeker Nasir, revealing where the player is.
There has been a lot of talk regarding the future of Nassir at Sundowns, after picking up quite a number of injuries that hampered his progress at the club.

The player was at Sundowns during pre-season after former coach Rulani Mokwena had initially revealed that the player would be leaving, but he was in training at Chloorkop for some time.
The player is not registered with Sundowns this season and Mngqithi has now revealed that the attacker is not training with them.
"Nasir is not at Sundowns at the moment. I think he is at SuperSport," the former Golden Arrows coach said after Sundowns' clash against Marumo Gallants on Wednesday evening.
SuperSport are in the market for strikers following the injury sustained by experienced campaigner Bradley Grobler, who is their main man upfront.

With Grobler out, the club has been linked with a few strikers. Orlando Pirates forward Zakhele Lepasa is believed to have been a target for the club, but has been out with an injury. Recently, SuperSport head coach Gavin Hunt confirmed that they are interested in free agent Samir Nurkovic, who parted ways with TS Galaxy.
Nasir is another option for the club as the player is looking to revive his career after his disappointing spell at Sundowns, plagued by injury.
