DR Congo international Fiston Mayele is a major doubt for Pyramids FC’s upcoming CAF Champions League final against Mamelodi Sundowns.
In a highly competitive clash on Saturday, May 24, 2025, Sundowns (South Africa) will play host to Pyramids in the first leg of the final before the return clash in Egypt on June 1.
