Bongani Khumalo, Fagrie Lakay join SuperSport United

SuperSport United have confirmed the signings of former Bafana Bafana defender Bongani Khumalo and Fagrie Lakay.

Khumalo was part of squad that played in a pre-season Cape Town Cup tournament a week ago.

"SuperSport United is delighted to confirm the signings of Bongani Khumalo and Fagrie Lakay on a three- and four-year deal respectively," the club said on their official website.

The 28 year-old defender arrives at United following a four-year spell in the English Premiership with Tottenham Hotspur.

"Khumalo is an important piece in the jigsaw,” says club Chief Executive Officer, Stan Matthews.

"We were looking for a centre-back type, like Khumalo. He’s physical, strong and experienced in this league. He already has a proven record and there are good things to come from him. He is exactly what we need."

The 18 year-old Lakay joins Matsatsantsa from national first division side, Santos.
