After training with SuperSport United last month, the Thahayandou-born defender, who began his career at Bloemfontein Celtic, is reportedly close to signing for PSL newcomers Polokwane City.
“He left SuperSport United because they never made any offer. So he’s not with the team in Durban for pre-season,” a source told FARPost.
“Polokwane City are talking to him with the view of signing him. They’re not looking at assessing him, they just want to sign him,” the source added.
