Dar es Salaam. Tanzania Mainland football giants Young Africans (Yanga)’s new striker, Prince Dube, has said better things are coming to the club, and that his lone goal against TS Galaxy is what it means ahead of the upcoming season, especially in the CAF Champions League.
Dube made an immediate impact by scoring the goal in the 55th minute during a friendly match against South Africa’s Premier League team.
His performance has already begun to endear him to Yanga’s fans. In his post-match comments, Dube expressed his excitement about joining Yanga and his aspirations for the team.
"I am very happy to score for Yanga. There are many good things to come, aimed at uplifting Yanga and achieving success.
“I haven't played matches for a long time, I mean the tough ones and now I am starting to play them again. I can see the combination coming now, and I will make the members and fans of Yanga happy," he said.
Dube's statement reflects his commitment to overcome the challenges he faced due to his absence from competitive play.
The striker is confident that with time and effort, he will regain his peak form and significantly contribute to the team's success.
His enthusiasm and positive outlook are already creating a buzz among Yanga supporters, who are eager to see their team excel in both domestic and international competitions.
The striker also praised the camaraderie and team spirit within the club.
According to Dube, the supportive environment at Yanga is a critical factor that will help the team achieve its goals.
"I am pleased with the great cooperation within the club because even if Jean Baleke, Clement Mzize, or any other striker plays, they provide great support since the goal is to do well for the team," he said.
This sense of unity and mutual support among the players is vital for Yanga as they aim to dominate the Tanzanian Premier League and make a significant impact on the CAF Champions League.
Dube's recognition of his teammates' contributions underscores the collective effort required to achieve success in football.
The Zimbabwean striker’s arrival at Yanga comes at a time when the club is determined to reclaim its status as the top team in Tanzania and to establish itself as a formidable force in African football.
With a player of Dube's calibre, Yanga are hopeful that they can achieve those ambitious goals. His track record at Azam FC, where he was known for his scoring prowess, suggests that he has the potential to be a game-changer for Yanga.
