AmaZulu defender, Carlington Nyadombo, has been selected as the club’s Player of the Month for March.

The Zimbabwean, who has taken the captain’s armband from his injured countryman, Tapuwa Kapini, has been in impressive form for the KZN outfit.

Nyadombo said the award is the reward for the hard work he has been putting into his game.

“It’s a great feeling to be honoured in this way at this stage of the season. I think the technical staff and my teammates have seen something and the hard work that I’ve been putting in lately. They’ve congratulated me in this form which to me is a morale booster, especially ahead of an important match this weekend against Free State Stars,” Nyadombo told the club’s official website.

According to the club, the 28-year-old was handed a cheque of R2 000 and a voucher for a night’s stay for two at Durban’s popular hotel, Suncoast Hotel Towers as the prize for his achievement.

Nyadombo will be expected to play a leading role for Usuthu in the game against Ea Lla Koto on Saturday.
