Yanga Head Coach Nasreddine Nabi said striker Fiston Mayele deserves to start in the first team ahead of Heritier Makambo due to his quality on the pitch
Makambo who is fans favorite, has had a difficult time finding a playing time in the seven league matches that Yanga has played so far
However, no fan can question Nabi's decision to use Mayele as his number one striker
Mayele has scored three goals in seven league games and provided one assists. He has shown great potential
Nabi said he is proud to have the two strikers in his squad as even Makambo is not a bad striker
But he stressed that it is not easy for a coach to put out a player who is good, doing his job well
"The fans love Mayele and he does very well on the pitch, I as a coach can't put out a player who does a good job on the pitch.
"There are those who question why Makambo does not play, he is not a bad player he shows a lot of effort on the field of training. I think he will get a chance according to the needs of the match," said Nabi
There have been rumors that Makambo is unhappy about not getting a chance in the squad, AS Vita club showing interest in signing him
