Bafana Bafana star Jamie Webber has dumped the Premier Soccer League for a move abroad after ending his relationship with Sekhukhune United, a team he joined before the start of the 2023-24 season.

The South African midfielder was once a transfer target for Kaizer Chief, but he's opted to move abroad rather than stay in the Betway Premiership.

The midfielder's decision to leave Sekhukhune was based on him not getting enough playing time at Babina Noko this season.
