Baroka sign top Zimbabwean goalkeeper – report

According to the Herald, the reigning Castle Lager Premier Soccer League goalkeeper of the Year will join Bakgaga in June in preparation for the 2018/19 season.

The 28-year-old goal-minder will replace Oscarine Masuluke, who was released by the club together with coach Kgoloko Thobejane and captain Olaleng Shaku following disciplinary actions against them.

Shaku has already signed a short-term contract with National First Division side Witbank Spurs, while Masuluke and Thobejane are yet to find new homes.

Meanwhile, Chicken Inn could also lose midfielder Innocent Mucheneka, who is understood to be also on the radar of Maritzburg United.

Mucheneka was on a trial stint at The Team of Choice on Thursday last week under the watchful eye of coach Fadlu Davids, and was expected back in the country on Sunday night.

The players’ manager, Gibson Mahachi, while refusing to confirm the Chipezeze deal, indicated that Mucheneka had indeed travelled to Pietermaritzburg, where he was trying his luck at the South African club.

“Yes, for Innocent, that is true. He is undergoing trials with them. He started training with them last week, and we are still to hear if they are interested or not.

“It was an international break so the coaches there might have more time to assess him other than when they are busy with their league match preparations.

“The transfer window there is closed for now, and the players they want might be moving in June not now,” Mahachi told the Herald.
