Local players join Polokwane City

The activities for the new soccer season will start next month, but it is already business as usual in the camp of Polokwane City.

The team recently signed three players. The chief operations officer, Mr Tincy Tema, has confirmed that they have acquired the services of Ndivhuwo Ravhuhali from Baroka, Wiseman Maluleke from Jomo Cosmos and Bongile Booi from Milano.  City recently released Sipho Jembula, Tlou Sekgolela, Esau Kanye Matjela, Sibusiso Msibi, Bonginkosi Zuma and Pule Konopi.

Tema has confirmed that Ravhuhali will be in their colours this season after speculation that he had trained with the team. “The signing of players like Maluleke outlines our ambitions of playing well in the PSL next season. Everything has been finalised regarding his signature and he should be available for selection in our first league game next month.”

Most of the players who were released featured primarily in the first team last season. Speaking about the team’s new season plan, Tema said that the team would have a completely new look in terms of players. "The coach met with board members to discuss plans for the new season. He is focusing on bringing in new players."
