Ncikazi recently spoke to FARPost about the players he wanted to sign during the January transfer window.
“We are always ambitious, if we had enough resources like others maybe I would bring a (Lionel) Messi to Pirates,” Ncikazi said.
“But having said that, we are never enough. There are areas that you would wish (to strengthen). But sometimes the timing of bringing players which I think becomes important in our team.
When and how they bring the players, we respect their wisdom and vision on how they do it. But personally, I would have loved to have certain players but we respect the processes of the club on how they do things,” added Ncikazi.
“You can not take out without bringing in, covid has taught me that expect the unexpected so based on what is happening with covid.
You can’t have a very thin squad and the club being involved in CAF competition will need a lot of players when you look at the fixture that you are going to be engaged in, we are going to rotate the players, use some in the league so we can not take out without bringing any,” said Ncikazi regarding the club’s decision not to release any player.
“I am not sure whether there is still a possibility but we will respect the process within the club.”
