Zimbabwe International defender, Teenage Hadebe has set his sights on helping his new side Konyaspor survive relegation in the Turkish Super League this season.
Hadebe returned to the Turkish League on Saturday as he signed a short-term deal with Konyaspor. He is now set for a second dance in the Turkish League.
On Sunday, Konyaspor beat Ankaragucu 1-0 to move to 25 points from as many games and are still second from bottom in 19th place, occupying the final relegation slot.

“It is exciting to be back in the Turkish League and I am looking forward to a new challenge with Konyaspor and I am ready for the challenge,” said Hadebe.
“My main target and objective is to save the team from relegation and I am confident that I will play my part in helping them to remain in the Turkish Super League come end of the season.”
He added that having been sidelined for a few months with injury, he is set to use his time at Konyaspor to get some get time and return to full fitness.
Hadebe revealed that he had signed a six-month deal with the Turkish side to remain active as he ponders on his next long-term move.
“It is a short term contract that I have signed with Konyaspor, which will last until the end of the current season and after that I will make a decision on my future,” said Hadebe.
Hadebe returns to the Turkish League after spending two-and-half years with US Major Soccer League side Houston.
Before joining Houston in July 2021, Hadebe had spent two years in the Turkish League with Yeni Malatyaspor.
During his stay at Yeni Malatyaspor, Hadebe made 53 appearances scoring two goals.
