MAHLATSE MAKUDUBELA MOVES TO AZAM?
You can tell it’s a full transfer time. Former Orlando Pirates winger Mahlatse Makudubela is expected to quit Young Africans in Tanzania.
The 34-year-old from Vosloorus, Gauteng, left South Africa in July 2023 to join East African powerhouse Yanga. Despite garnering fan support, the former Orlando Pirates player struggled not earn a starting spot under Nasreddine Nabi and later Miguel Gamoundi.
According to the most recent reports, Makudubela has piqued the interest of fellow Tanzania Premier League team Azam.
“The 34-year-old ex-Platinum Stars star is now clubless after his Tanzanian team Young Africans (Yanga) elected not to renew his contract, which is set to expire
“According to reports from Tanzania, Yanga’s rivals Azam FC are interested in adding him to their roster. However, Yanga will face competition from APR FC, which has recently appointed Serbian Darko Novic as their new coach,” according to the report on the Buccaneer winger.
