Fans question AmaZulu
Local football fans questioned AmaZulu on social media, saying the Namibian striker could prove to be a mistake for signing.
Karabo Paul Matshaba is impressed:
"Good player, he will add value to AmaZulu FC. The January transfer window is quiet; few teams have released or agreed to sell the players. Let's wait and see what happens next."
Lesson ST Bronze is not happy:
"Signing a player from Chippa United who doesn't even have five goals to his name is another bad signing for Amazulu FC."
TK Vee wants other teams to start signing players:
"This is what Kaizer Chiefs should be doing."
Thobela Goni praised AmaZulu:
"AmaZulu will be playing in the MTN 8 next season. Zwane and Kanu are very brilliant. They know which players to sign for the team."
Bhuti Nkuluh Menziwa says AmaZulu made a mistake:
"43 games in two and a half seasons, then five goals. Amazulu are not serious; let's hope he proves us wrong."
Bongani Zungo opens up his choice to join AmaZulu
As Briefly News reported, former Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Bongani Zungu is relishing the chance to play for AmaZulu.
The midfielder joined Usuthu as a free agent ahead of the January transfer window despite interest from Kaizer Chiefs, SuperSport United and Wydad Casablanca.
