SuperSport United confirmed the signing of midfielder Phathutshezdo Nange from Kaizer Chiefs on a two-year-contract on Wednesday afternoon.
The 31-year-old Nange has been reunited with Matsatsantsa a Pitori coach Gavin Hunt, who coached him at Bidvest Wits before he moved to Stellenbosch FC.
“Phathu Nange is a player we have liked for some time, so it’s great that we have been able to secure him on a free contract from Kaizer Chiefs. Having played for Gavin before, we are confident he will hit the ground running and give our midfield a boost with goals and assists as he did at Stellenbosch, Bidvest Wits and Black Leopards before,” Matsatsantsa chief executive officer Stan Mathews said.
Nange, a former Black Leopards midfielder, said: “I would like to thank SuperSport United for the opportunity they gave me. It is a great feeling joining SuperSport and I’m looking forward and excited to start a new journey on a positive way. I worked with coach Gavin before and we had a clean working relationship. He is a winning coach by nature and good for his players because we all want to win at the end of the day.”
