SuperSport United have formally unveiled former Bafana Bafana striker and captain Sibusiso Zuma as one of their new recruits for the 2011/2012 Premiership season.

“We are delighted to have signed Rhee (Zuma). He is  one of the most experienced players in the league,” said United’s publicist Mazolman Skhosana.

"He will definitely add value, we are busy rebuilding the team after failing to win our fourth successive championship title last season.

Before joining United, Zuma spent the previous season with the Cape Town based outfit Vasco Da Gama who have since been relegated to the National First Division.

Prior to joining Da Gama, Zuma played for United’s rivals Mamelodi Sundowns where he was reportedly earning R250,000 a month.

Zuma, who could not be recahed for comment, started his professional soccer career with African Wanderers in KwaZulu-Natal before joining South African giants  Orlando Pirates. He was influential at Pirates and it saw him going to Europe to play for Copenhagen FC in Denmark where he spent just over 10 years.

United have also signed former South African Under-20 international winger Mduduzi Nyanda on loan from Pirates.

Nyanda was on loan with Platinum Stars last season.

The other new players at United are  Atusayo Nyondo, John Arwuah, Mame Niang, Sifiso Mbhele, Skhumbuzo Mdluli, Philani Khwela, Sanele Khuzwayo, Nasief Morris and Motseothata November.

Central Midfielder Khwela is rejoining Matsatsantsa a Pitori after winning the championship with them in 2008-2009 season and left for Holland’s Feyenoord the following season.

One of the new  youngsters in the senior team is left-back Sanele Khuzwayo who won the Cape Town’s Bayhill Cup last year under the guidance of Kwanele Kopo.
