While some critics have had doubts on one of Orlando Pirates’ new signings following the disappearance of Bienvenu Eva Nga from the limelight, an insider has given positive feedback on the star.
Before joining Pirates, Eva Nga had been high in confidence and being one of the regular scoring strikers in the league for his 10 goals for Chippa United last season.

However, at the Soweto giants, the burly forward has had a slow start and appearing to be struggling with form, which has led to several reports linking him with an exit from the club.
The 30-year-old has scored just one goal from 10 appearances in the league for Bucs so far this season.
Following the arrival of his countryman Souaibou Marou, the new striker has taken some time to adjust, although indications are that the technical team has been impressed with his progress from the training ground.
Against Kaizer Chiefs on the weekend, Marou was an unused substitute as the Buccaneers lost 1-0 at FNB Stadium.

Since his arrival in January, the 22-year-old has featured in one match so far when he came on in the dying minutes against Maritzburg United during the 2-1 victory.
“The new striker from Cameroon is likely to become one of the most talked about players in the league once he starts playing regularly. He is adjusting well and has got all the qualities you need from a good player,” said the source.
