Zwane's new contract was confirmed in the tweet below:
Teboho Mokoena
The Sundowns star is highly rated at the club, and they pulled out all the stops to hand him a five-year contract amid rumours that overseas clubs are showing an interest in the midfielder.
Mokoena said he was glad to stay at Masandawana, while his former coach, Pitso Mosimane, felt it would have been better if he had moved overseas.
Stanley Nwabali
At the end of last season, the Nigerian international goalkeeper expressed his desire to leave Chippa United after reported interest from Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates.
Despite being linked with the Soweto giants and some overseas clubs, Nwabali recently signed a three-year extension at Chippa and will captain the side next season.
Rian Hanamub
The Namibian defender was recently linked with Chiefs while he was previously a reported target for Pirates.
While the left-back was linked with a move away from AmaZulu, the 29-year-old has reportedly signed a new deal at Usuthu.
Ronwen Williams
While the Bafana Bafana skipper is still recovering from a shoulder injury, he will enter the new season on the back of signing a new deal at the end of last season.
The influential 32-year-old shot-stopper penned a four-year-deal at Sundowns but said he still dreams of playing overseas.
Tshegofatso Mabasa
Last season’s PSL Golden Boot winner agreed to sign a new deal at Pirates after an impressive display last season.
Mabasa was linked with a move to Sundowns and Romanian champions FCSB, but he has decided to stay with the Soweto club
English club shows interest in Orlando Pirates player
As reported by Briefly News, Cardiff City has shown an interest in Orlando Pirates star Thalente Mbatha.
Despite the 24-year-old recently signing a permanent contract at the Soweto giants, the club are expecting a bid from the Championship side for the highly-rated midfielder.
