Since joining the club in August last year, the 30-year-old has been playing catch-up in terms of his fitness.
This has seen him enjoy relatively less game time than initially anticipated when he made his high-profile return to the Chloorkop outfit.
His coach Rulani Mokwena has also been very vocal about his expectations of the player.
However, speaking to the media ahead of their match against Coton Sport, Zungu maintains that he is putting in the work to garner a regular spot in the starting XI.
“Well, I made a decision to come back and play for one of the biggest teams in Africa, a team with great ambition. You know, to succeed and compete against the best in Africa. Since I've left Sundowns and coming back, there's been a tremendous improvement in all corners of the club and the players that we have now have big quality, so for me, it's just it has been about working hard and I'm playing for a team that is doing very well,” Zungu told the media.
“It doesn't matter who starts. It's up to the coach who he starts and as I just mentioned that for me it's just to continue working hard and be patient and wait and wait for my chance and when the chance does come, you know just grabbing both hands,” he continued.
