HIGHLANDERS FC has promoted 19-year-old right back, Mvelo Khoza, from their development side Bosso 90 to the first team as the Bulawayo giants continue preparations for the 2024 Premier League season.
The 2024 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League season is set to begin on February 24 with the staging of the Castle Super Cup clash between league champions Ngezi Platinum and Chibuku Super Cup winners Dynamos at Baobab. A week later, league matches will start across the country.
In a post on their social media pages, Bosso said Khoza has penned a four-year deal.
“We are pleased to announce the promotion of Mvelo Khoza from our Developmental side, Bosso 90 to the first team. The 19-year-old right back is joining the senior team on a four-year-long deal. We wish him well in this new challenge,” posted Highlanders.
So far, Bosso has signed Marvin Sibanda on a three-year contract. The 25-year-old played for Little Rock Rangers FC in the States. The Little Rock Rangers FC is an American soccer team based in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Also, Bosso acquired the services of 24-year-old attacking midfielder Brian Ndlovu from Adachi FC on a three-year deal.
This week, Bosso announced the capture of the duo of Reason Sibanda, who was at Arenel and Brian Mlotshwa from Hwange. Sibanda scored eight goals for Arenel last season, while Mlotshwa was a vital cog in the Hwange backline.
Striker Calvin Chigonero, who was on loan at Bosso last season, has penned a permanent deal with the club.
In this same window, Highlanders have terminated the contracts of strikers Stanley Ngala, Washington Navaya and winger Ray Lunga as the club seeks to sharpen their strike-force.
The players are said to have been informed of the development last Friday.
