Lentjies and Tlolane sign with Chippa United

Chippa United boss Siviwe Mpengesi has started looking for players to bolster his squad.


Mpengesi has announced the signing of two standout performers in the Absa Premier last season in signing of Kurt Lentjies and Puleng Tlolane. The pair are joining Dan Malesela’s squad from Maritzburg United and Polokwane City respectively.

“At Chippa, we are busy signing players that we think are needed in the team,” Mpengesi said. “We are also working on strengthening our technical team in terms of getting coach Dan Malesela an experienced assistant coach and a proper structure.

“Even though we have not officially announced it, we already have clinched contracts with two new players in Kurt Lentjies and Puleng Tlolane. There are also other players I will announce soon.

“Chippa supporters have been questioning if my decision to let James Okwuosa join Orlando Pirates was correct.

“James only played one game for Pirates. He is still contracted to them, but he has been calling us pleading with us to talk with Pirates to bring him back. Those are some of the things that I have been working on.”
