African champions Mamelodi Sundowns have announced the signing of Amajita captain Lazola Maku.

He spent several weeks in Europe on trial after his exit from Siwelele before returning to South Africa for the U20 Cosafa Championship in Mozambique last month.
The SA U20 skipper had been linked with Sundowns and as the most experienced figure in the squad, it’s no surprise to see him join the Chloorkop-based outfit.
Maku racked up five appearances in the first team for Siwelele, having been part of the rebrand from SuperSport United.
He played a key role as Amajita defended their COSAFA U20 Championship title beating hosts Mozambique 2-1 in the final.
On Tuesday morning, Sundowns made the official announcement of Maku’s capture.
