Tshabalala on radar

has learnt that Baroka FC have been monitoring National first division midfielder Siphiwe Tshabalala (below) of Cape Town All Stars. According to the source, Tshabalala impressed the Baroka management following his impressive showing during the club’s 1-0 defeat against Mamelodi Sundowns in the last-32 of the Nedbank Cup and they will be going all out to bring him to the club in the next transfer window. “He was seen during a tournament played in Soweto two years ago when they first saw him, and the club has been watching him since then,” said the source. “He could have been signed on the spot, but they were not that much convinced and already there were other players they were looking for. But he has been good this season for All-Stars despite the club’s performance in the NFD. What really raised their eyebrows is his recent game against Sundowns, he was really good and they liked what they saw in him,” the source concluded.
