Bafana Bafana midfielder Sphephelo 'Yaya' Sithole will continue his journey abroad as he was recently unveiled by his new club in Portugal.

Another season, another new club for Sithole.

This time, he will appear in the colours of Portuguese top flight outfit Gil Vincente, after the club announced his arrival on loan for the 2024/25 season.

The move means that the KwaZulu-Natal Academy graduate will enter into his seventh year in Portugal, having turned out for the likes of Sporting Lisbon, Vitoria Guimaraes, Balenenses and CD Tondela.

The Portuguese club, via their official website confirmed that the 25-year-old has already joined their pre-season programme and has penned a one-year loan deal, though it does include an option to purchase him outright.

Sithole's stock has firmly risen over the last two years as he managed to cement his place within Hugo Broos's Bafana Bafana side where he played an integral part in the country's third-place finish at the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.
