Sifiso Hlanti: Kaizer Chiefs target joins Swallows FC

Swallows chairman David Mogashoa has confirmed the signing of former Bidvest Wits defender Sifiso Hlanti.

The 30-year-old had been training with Kaizer Chiefs for just over a month, hoping to land a contract had the Soweto giants’ transfer ban been lifted by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

But after CAS threw out Chiefs’ appeal, the club released Hlanti, together with goalkeeper Brandon Peterson and midfielder Phathutshedzo Nange who were also training at Naturena.

The length of Hlanti’s Swallows contract is however yet to be made known.

“Welcome to the Birds Nest Hlanthi,” Mogashoa announced on social media.
