MONENI RISING STARS SET FOR ENGLAND ASSESSMENT

MBABANE – Two promising scholars from Moneni Pirates have caught the attention of scouts, paving their way for potential assessments in the English Premier League (EPL).

This exciting development follows a recent visit from former Everton superstar Yakubu Ayegbeni, who trained with the ‘Sea Robbers’ of Moneni three months ago, thanks to the Prince Majaha Foundation. During his time in Eswatini, sources confirmed that the former Super Eagles striker not only participated in evening training sessions, but also inspired players to dream beyond their local horizons. In a recent interview with Eswatini TV, Moneni Pirates President Thulani Xaba elaborated ongoing efforts to secure international opportunities for his players.
“We’re making strides after Yakubu visit.

Two players have been identified, but we’re cautious to not disrupt their schooling,” Xaba stated, hinting at assessments likely to take place at Everton, where Yakubu has strong connections. Xaba emphasised the need for exposure, highlighting that Eswatini is rich in talent but requires more support to help players shine on the global stage. ambitious
He also detailed the club’s ambitious vision over the next few years, which includes building their own training facility, while prioritising the players’ education and stability.

Reflecting on his journey, Xaba, who played for Moneni Pirates at the Under-14 level, acknowledged the significant improvements made since he took over the presidency, particularly in the technical team. Under the leadership of Ghanaian Coach Christopher Ennin, the team have secured eight points from six matches, currently sitting eighth in the MTN Premier League of Eswatini (PLE).  Their recent triumph against last season’s champions, Mbabane Swallows, stands out as a key achievement, as they strive for greater heights. With the right guidance and opportunities, the future looks bright for Pirates and their aspiring stars.
