Mamelodi Sundowns sign Bafana Bafana star

Posted on January 8, 2026

Tshwane giants Mamelodi Sundowns have seemingly refreshed the left-centre back position.

The champions recently parted ways with the Argentine Lucas Suarez, while Mosa Lebusa, 33, is in the final months of his contract with Sundowns.

According to reports, TS Galaxy’s Khulumani Ndamane is on his way to Chloorkop.

NEW BLOOD IN THE LEFT-CENTER BACK POSITION

According to Soccer Beat, the 21-year-old Ndamane from Weenen, KwaZulu-Natal, has said goodbye to his TS Galaxy teammates. His new destination? The mighty Sundowns, also known as Kabo Yellow.

“Our sources tell us that TS Galaxy defender Khulumani Ndamane has said his final goodbyes to his teammates as he prepares to complete a move to Mamelodi Sundowns,” Soccer Beat reported.

MAMELODI SUNDOWNS HAVE SIGNED A SOUGHT-AFTER BRIGHT YOUNG STAR

Ndamane’s career took off rather rapidly. It was only in June 2024 when he turned professional with the move to TS Galaxy.

After coming through the Kaizer Chiefs academy and featuring regularly in the DStv Diski Challenge, the young defender decided it was time to look elsewhere for first-team football.

That decision paid off quickly. Ndamane settled in fast at TS Galaxy and made the central defence his own.

In his first season at the Rockets, he played more than 30 matches in all competitions, playing a key role as Galaxy finished fifth in the league.

The strong club form also opened the door at international level. Ndamane earned his first Bafana Bafana call-up and made his senior debut in June 2025.

The new Sundowns star has since collected more caps and was part of the squad that qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and competed at the 2025 AFCON.

Meanwhile, Sundowns have also reportedly signed Colombian striker Brayan Leon.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF HIS TRANSFER TO SUNDOWNS?
