Matola explains why Simba SC moved to sign Chikwende from FC Platinum

Simba SC coach Selemani Matola has dismissed claims they are not good at scouting because they tend to sign players who have always scored against them.

In recent transfers, Simba have always signed players who have scored against them, the first example being Louis Miquissone who arrived at Msimbazi from UD Songo after notching a goal against them.

The club then moved to sign winger Bernard Morrison from rivals Yanga SC after the Ghanaian scored a well-taken free-kick in the second round of 2019-20 derby to help his team end their winless run against the champions.
