Baartman is talented but must work harder, says Mhlongo
Former Orlando Pirates star Benson Mhlongo has described a Kaizer Chiefs teenager as intelligent but lacking in work rate.
“I can describe Luke Baartman as a new sensation—one of the rare intelligent players at his age. He is very smart,” Benson Mhlongo said.
“I just hope Chiefs will be patient with him because he doesn’t show much work rate at training; he is more calculative. While others may be running at full speed, he takes a more measured approach.

“I was approached after our friendly match. They appreciated my performance, especially the four penalties saved,” said Camara.
