The Downs midfielder has made an impression on his coach Pitso Mosimane, both in their domestic league campaign and their CAF Champions League safari after reaching the semifinals of the continental inter-club competition.
Mosimane has likened the pacey winger to Spanish great Andres Iniesta because of his pace and fearlessness to go for goals when an opportunity presents itself. Zwane's current market value is a cool R16m, says transfermarkt.com

Since the January transfer window, opposition clubs have been watching coach Owen Da Gama's prolific striker like hawks waiting to pounce. But Da Gama turned down an offer for R10m from a rival club, believed to be Sundowns or Chiefs, to buy their star forward.His club will not let him go easily as he has sustained Highlands Park in their first season in top flight.
It remains to be seen who will be the highest bidder to snap up Mvala. Transfermarkt.com has valued the player at R10.5m.
