MBABANE – South Africa (SA)-born goalkeeper Kwanele ‘Chipezeze’ Buthelezi
has shown interest in playing in Eswatini’s Premier League.
Buthelezi, who is currently a free agent, mentioned that he would love to play
for Mbabane Highlanders. He said he was attracted by the club’s
professionalism and playing style. The goalkeeper also highlighted on his
football journey while at home, stating that he also has Nedbank Cup experience
under his belt. “I played for Stone Breakers in the ABC Motsepe Foundation
League and I played the Nedbank Cup up to the final of qualifying for the Last
32,” said Buthelezi.  The 26-year-old also mentioned that he wants to join a
club from Eswatini to gain a fresh perspective in terms of his mental awareness
of the game outside SA.
He said playing outside SA will train his mental fitness much better. Meanwhile,
it is worth noting that Buthelezi came to the country last season, where he was
training with Moneni Pirates for about a week. “I was supposed to be part of
the team (Moneni Pirates) but my previous team (Asande FC) denied for my papers
to be released. So I went back to SA and I’m now a free agent,” expressed
the shot-stopper. He said that playing for a club as big as Highlanders would be
a huge boost in his career, where he would be playing at a very professional
level.
He shared that possible suitors can contact him on 0027 661 982 456.
