Ex-Sundowns star completes Galaxy move

Former Mamelodi Sundowns defender Thabo Nthethe has resurfaced at Glad Africa Championship side TS Galaxy.


The former Nedbank Cup champions has made their first signing under their new coach Mabhuti Khenyeza.

Nthethe was reportedly training with the side for a few weeks before he was offered a contract.

Club president Tim Sukazi says Nthethe was signed for his experience having played for Bloemfontein Celtic and Sundowns.

“The signing of Thabo comes at a crucial time for our club where we are transitioning into a new phase with the recent appointment of our new coach. Thabo brings a wealth of experience to our youthful squad and his leadership will most certainly add value to the club. We are quite pleased that he has finally signed with us. A player with international experience like him is not easy to find more especially for a young club,” said TS Galaxy president Tim Sukazi.

Nthethe is delighted by his return after spending most of last season on the sidelines and the first half of the 2019/2020 season searching for a club.

“To all the supporters of TS Galaxy football club, players, management and technical team, I am very happy to be a part of this wonderful team. I am looking forward to helping the team play good football and in turn bring joy and success to our supporters around the country,” Nthethe told the club’s website.
