Official: SSU Sign Pirates Star

SuperSport United have announced the signing of Terrence Dzvukamanja on a free transfer from Orlando Pirates.

Pirates released a statement on Monday, saying that Dzvukamanja had asked the club to be released “to play in Zimbabwe to be close to home in order to address pressing family matters”.

The club further stated they wanted to grant him “compassionate leave” to sort out his issues but wanted to include him in their CAF Champions League squad for the 2023/24 season.

However, in Pirates’ version of events SuperSport then approached the player to the “surprise” of the Buccaneers, who then opted to “release Dzvukamanja to SuperSport”.

On Friday, Matsatsantsa have unveiled Dzvukamanja as their new player for an “undisclosed fee”.

Dzvukamanja previously worked with Gavin Hunt at Bidvest Wits before he joined Pirates in 2020 and made 76 appearances for the Buccaneers, scoring 16 goals. 

Eight of those goals came last season, when he made the number 9 spot his own in the second half of the campaign and also scored the winner in the Nedbank Cup final.
