Sekhukhune United have parted ways with winger Lesiba Nku as part of their ongoing squad overhaul ahead of the new campaign, iDiski Times has learnt.
The 30-year-old’s stint with Babina Noko lasted a mere six months, having only arrived at the Limpopo-based outfit during the January transfer window following his departure from Stellenbosch FC.
The tricky left-footer endured a difficult spell in Polokwane, falling short of the lofty expectations placed on his shoulders.
Throughout his brief five-month playing stint with Sekhukhune, Nku made ten appearances across all competitions—eight in the Betway Premiership and two in the Nedbank Cup—chipping in with a solitary assist.
Information at this publication’s disposal indicates that the player was handed his clearance this week, rendering him a free agent, meaning he can join any club of his choice.
Nku will be eager to secure a new home swiftly to ensure he undergoes a full pre-season as he looks to breathe new life into his career next campaign. His departure comes amidst a whirlwind of high-profile exits from the club on Wednesday.
Experienced midfielder Thabang Monare formally confirmed his departure from the side, bringing the curtain down on a two-year stay.
On the very same day, inspirational club captain Linda Mntambo officially called time on his illustrious playing career, announcing his retirement from professional football at the age of 37.
With the transfer window gaining momentum, further departures are highly anticipated at Sekhukhune in the coming weeks.
