“I think obviously he is a good young player, he has good versatility,” said Hunt.
The younger Gordinho has played mainly as a defensive midfielder but the Wits coach believes centre back could be his best position.
“I told him I think he will end up as a centre back, that is my honest opinion of him, he has good attributes … it is not because his brother is a centre back it is just because I think his attributes are better suited for a centre back. Obviously he can play defensive midfield as well, and that versatility interests me.”
