The Swope Park Rangers have signed midfielder Matshidiso Lebogang “Lebo” Moloto, the club announced on Monday. Moloto spent the last two seasons in the USL with the Pittsburgh Riverhounds and will join the Rangers ahead of the 2017 season, pending USL and federation approval.

“I am very happy and thrilled to be a part of the Swope Park Rangers and Sporting Kansas City family,” Moloto said. “I just want to thank everyone who made this move possible. I can’t wait to represent my family and Kansas City, and I can’t wait for preseason to begin.”

“Lebo has very good vision and he’s a very technical player,” Swope Park Rangers head coach Nikola Popovic said.
