For the first time the club is in the group stages back-to-back and so we are looking forward to another good run in the Champions League and we are very excited,” said Mokwena.</p><p>"Group stages of the Champions League, very difficult. Just last night I was studying all the other different groups, I think we are one of the two groups that have three league champions in it and that already is difficult.</p><p>"Only Lupopo were runners-up in their domestic league but the rest of the three teams are league champions, that tells you the level of the teams, the difficulty that you will face with the games and we have to respect that.</p><p>While he is wary of the opposition, the former Sundowns and Wydad Casablanca boss is upbeat about his team's chances as he is eager to guide MCA to the latter stages of the competition.</p><p>“But also we are very comfortable and extremely confident in our profile as a club, in our ambition as a staff, as a group of players and we understand the club that we represent, so we want to do better than we did last season and of course it starts with qualifying from the group,” he added.</p><p>"And that means you have to start match by match and this is a very important match for us.

He has kept four clean sheets in nine Serie A appearances this term.</p><p>However, despite his impressive performances, Ivan Provedel has taken the starting berth and relegated him to the bench.</p><p>West Ham could be his next destination, but they are not alone in the race. Wolverhampton Wanderers, Getafe, Bournemouth and Fiorentina are tracking the Greek shot-stopper.</p><p>The Hammers could consider a six-month loan with an option to buy in January.</p><p>Lazio may prefer an outright sale, but West Ham need flexibility as they fix their goalkeeping department on the fly.</p><p>A loan would allow Nuno to assess whether Mandas can genuinely make a difference at the back, while giving the player the regular opportunities he craves.</p><p>If he impresses across the second half of the campaign, West Ham can then trigger a permanent move.</p><p>It’s a low-risk, high-upside approach and precisely the kind of shrewd business they should be targeting.</p><img src="" data-uuid="427afb8d-0d82-3b38-872a-2f4b95a13af3">)
