REPORTS: CAPE TOWN CITY SIGN SUPRISE RALANI’S REPLACEMENT
As The South African reported several weeks ago, Mamelodi Sundowns made a surprise signing of Surprise Ralani from the Citizens.
The football community was stunned and battled, why did the DStv Premiership champions sign a 34-year-old player? The club was quick to make solid sense of the decision.
With the club’s other left-wing option Khanyisa Mayo yet to really sparkle since moving to Cape Town City this season, Eric Tinkler was expected to bring in a new face in the number 11 position.
According to an exclusive report from iDiski Times, the hip club have signed Darwin González.
“Cape Town City have completed the signing of Darwin González as the replacement for Bradley Ralani,” iDiski Times said.
“City have cashed in on Ralani in a reported R4-million deal while Fagrie Lakay is also set for a move to Egyptian Premier League side Pyramids.
“The 26-year-old González is set to join as a free agent after leaving Deportivo La Guaira in December just 10 months into his second stint.”
Meanwhile, the club is expected to make the official announcement in the coming hours.
