Stellenbosch FC have confirmed the departure of one of the club’s key midfielders, who looks set to join Kaizer Chiefs.
Phathushedzo Nange looks set to be on his way to Naturena, albeit one season later, following his exit from the Western Cape outfit.
“The club would like to thank Phathutshedzo Nange for his year’s service. We wish him all the best for his future,” the club wrote on their official Twitter page.
As reported by the Siya crew earlier this year, Nange was one of four former Bidvest Wits players who were ‘signed’ by Amakhosi – but were unable to join the club due to their two-window transfer ban handed down by FIFA.
As a result, the 29-year-old penned a short-term deal with coach Steve Barker’s side, while the likes of Kgaogelo Sekgota and Sifiso Hlanti joined Swallows FC, Brandon Petersen remained clubless.
Nange made 24 appearances in all competitions for Stellies scoring four goals and registering a further four assists.
Now, with his exit being confirmed by the club, the former Black Leopards midfielder looks all set to be joining coach Stuart Baxter’s Chiefs side where he will undoubtedly provide stern competition for the likes of Willard Katsande, Anthony Agay and Bernard Parker in the middle of the park.
The likes of Njabulo Ngcobo, Sibusiso Mabiliso, Hlanti and Sekgota are expected to join him at Naturena.
