Just few days after being released by Mamelodi Sundowns, one striker is believed to have found a new home at newly-promoted Durban City.  

Sources in Durban have revealed to the Siya crew that Thabang Sibanyoni has started training with City under new coach Gavin Hunt.

Sibanyoni spent the first half of last season on loan at Richards Bay FC, before joining Magesi in the second half and helping the club avoid relegation.

"He is here in Durban. He has already started training with the team. You know coach Gavin Hunt knows him and its believed that they are looking at him with a high chance of him signing," a source revealed to the Siya crew. 

Indications suggest that coach Hunt is looking at building a strong side to compete in the top-flight this season.

"He is one of the few new faces at the team. It's believed that the coach has identified areas which he needs to strengthen so that they can compete in the league and not just add numbers. So his deal could be imminent with Durban City," the source further revealed.
