SuperSport United have confirmed they have agreed terms for the permanent move of midfielder Sipho Mbule with Mamelodi Sundowns for an undisclosed fee.
Mbule, who had been suspended by the club, earlier in the year has now followed his former teammate Teboho Mokoena to Chloorkop.
He was also closely linked with Kaizer Chiefs, but Masandawana won the race for the highly-rated midfielder, as reported in edition 55 of iDiski Times when we reported that Mbule had agreed personal terms with Sundowns.
On Friday, SuperSport confirmed his transfer to the DStv Premiership champions..
“SuperSport United and Mamelodi Sundowns have agreed terms for the permanent move of midfielder Sipho Mbule as of effect from 1 July 2022 for an undisclosed fee,” SSU said in a statement.
Mbule joined SuperSport’s academy in the 2015/16 season from Virginia (Harmony) Sports Academy and played just under 100 games for Matsatsantsa.
The 24 -year-old played a crucial role in helping Matsatsantsa to lift the MTN 8 trophy twice in the 2017/18 and 2019/20 seasons and contributed immensely in SuperSport United’s historic CAF Confederation Cup journey, finishing as runners-up losing narrowly to DRCs TP Mazembe in 2017.
Mbule was rewarded by his peers for his superb and consistent performances in the 2019/20 season and scooped the SuperSport United Players’ Player of the season in the club awards. The Bethlehem-born player has represented South African in all youth levels (U17, U20, U23) and also featured in the Bafana Bafana squad.
