Cape Town City head coach Benni McCarthy has revealed the club is looking to sign a central defender ahead of the 2019/20 season.
This comes after City's first-choice centre back, Tariq Fielies was ruled out for four to five months with appendicitis following an operation.
McCarthy made it clear the Citizens are keen to challenge for the Premier Soccer League (PSL) title in the new campaign.
"If you are looking to compete to win the league, I think you need ready-made and experienced defenders. So, we are looking out for (defenders)," McCarthy told Marawa TV.
