Rodgers Set For Ajax Start

Rodgers Set For Ajax Start

Eleazar Rodgers is expected to start upfront for Ajax Cape Town, when they take on AmaZulu in their second clash of the 2013/14 Absa Premiership campaign.

Rodgers joined the Urban Warriors on a season-long loan deal, which formed part of the big money transfer of Khama Billiat to Mamelodi Sundowns.

Ajax head coach, Muhsin Ertugral, stated at an Ajax Cape Town press conference that Rodgers is likely to start upfront along with 22-year-old, Lebogang Manyama.

Ertugral said, "It wouldn't be wise for us to leave either one of them on the bench. We'll find ways to accommodate both of them at one time."

Ertugral went on to explain that there is no need to decide between the two, as they are both the quality that Ajax needs upfront.

"I think if you have two great strikers, why must one of them sit on the bench? You can expect that we'll play with two strikers," added Ertugral.
