Earlier this year, Durban City and Scottland announced a collaboration aimed at “strengthening football development, technical collaboration, and commercial growth”.
The defender says he is looking forward to the opportunity and hopes to make the most of his loan spell at Scottland.
“In football, after all, we’re professionals, I have to abide by the rules of my parent club which is Durban City,” Jalai told Fanzonezw.
“I’m hoping for the best during my stint here for six months.”
Jalai expressed his delight at joining Scottland, the reigning Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League champions, who have also enjoyed a strong campaign this season.
“Of course, the team is doing well and I’m looking forward to join them,” he added.
“I’ve seen the results of late, but it’s still a long way to go. The project is promising. So, we’re hoping for the best.”
