Signed from Mamelodi Sundowns just over a year ago, the move to the Buccaneers was seen as an opportunity to revive a once-promising career.
However, the former Black Leopards man would fail to establish himself as a regular in Jose Riveiro's side and would make just 13 appearances - majority of which came off the bench - in his only season spent with the Soweto giants.
