The Cape side confirmed the arrival of the 33-year-old on Thursday to bring a total number of signings to nine in the current transfer window.

Tinkler has also brought in Prince Tjiueza, Hashim Domingo, Kayden Francis, Fortune Makaringe, Ayanda Sithole, Lefa Aphane, Carlos do Carmo and Sibusiso Ziba.
