KZN Academy sends another player to Portugal

Another KwaZulu-Natal Academy player Sibusiso Shibane is in Europe to try his luck with Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon.


According to a source close to the player, Shibane, who plays as a striker, landed in Portugal on Monday.

“I am not sure how long the trial will take, but the boy is already in Portugal. What I know is that he will impress the team, he is good and has a bright future,” said the source.

If he signs, Shibane will join the likes of Thabo Cele, Cole Colbert, Sphephelo Sithole, Romario Morris and Sipho Mbhele who are all playing their football in Portugal.
