"So, I see balance with his left foot and balance with the right foot, with a change of direction and speed."But I think this boy has got also so many characteristics like the late Gift Leremi.Mabena starred at the recent Cosafa Under-17 tournament held in Malawi late in 2022 where he clinched the Golden Boot Award with nine goals in the competition.
