Exclusive: Sekhukhune Secure Three Signings

Sekhukhune United have completed the signings of Justin Shonga, Evans Rusike and Luckyboy Mokoena who are set to be unveiled imminently.

The DStv Premiership newcomers finished the first half of the season in a credible eighth place and are now looking to build on their impressive start to life in the top-flight.

Shonga, 25, joins on a free transfer after being released by Egyptian Premier League side Ismaily last month and previously had stints with Orlando Pirates, TTM and Cape Town City.

The Zambia international comes highly-rated despite his recent struggles and will be joined by Zimbabwe international striker Evans Rusike – who finally completes his move after recovering from a long-term injury.

Rusike was poised to join Babina Noko in the off-season but suffered an injury whilst on duty with the Warriors which stalled the deal.

Meanwhile, Mokoena, one of the most consistent right-backs in the league over the past two seasons, joins from TS Galaxy and will be providing further options in defence for head coach MacDonald Makhubedu.

All three players are expected to be unveiled by the club within the next 24 hours after joining up with the squad upon their return from the mid-season break.
