Themba Zwane is my dream signing – Bizana Pondo Chiefs coach

“For me when I look at South African football now, the best player in the country is Themba Zwane.” Chiefs head coach Clinton Larsen told KickOff regarding his dream signing.

“It’s my opinion. People can disagree with me but it’s my opinion. So if I say he’s the best player in South Africa currently, it would mean that any coach would want him in the team. Am I right? So for me that’s the player. He’s been very consistent with his performances for the last two to three seasons. So I rate him very, very highly, I think he’s really, really a top class player.

“He’s learned how to defend. When you look at his impact in terms of what he brings offensively to the team his playmaking ability. Every coach wants a player who retains possession, who is creative, who can play between the lines, play in the half spaces, has a high level of game intelligence, Themba Zwane got all these things you know. And he’s scoring to his repertoire as well you know. So, he’s a complete midfielder that you’ll never get anywhere in the continent.”

Clinton Larsen’s Bizana Pondo Chiefs currently sit in 16th place on the GladAfrica Championship log standings with just four games to go and will need someone like Themba Zwane to rescue them!

The newly promoted Chiefs are seven points behind 15th placed Steenberg United and nine points behind Cape Town Spurs who are in 14th place and will require a miracle to survive relegation.
