University of Pretoria midfielder, Ayanda Lubelo, has joined fellow PSL side, Wits.

The 20-year-old joined Tuks at the start of last season, after impressing during a spell with Mpumalanga Black Aces.

Lubelo wore the number 10 jersey in Steve Barker’s side last season, starting in seven league games but featuring in 18 matches overall.

Tuks’ official Twitter account said, “News Alert: We confirm the transfer of AmaTuks midfielder Ayanda Lubelo to @bidvestwits. Wishing him all the best at his new club #Transfers”

The Siya crew spoke to the player’s agent, Paul Mitchell, the managing director of Siyavuma Sports Group, who confirmed the move.

He said, “Yes, Ayanda has joined Wits today, I think it’s a great opportunity for him to join a progressive club like Wits and I think he’ll develop under the tutelage of Gavin Hunt."

Wits are continuing to bolster their side for the new season as they look to build a side worthy of challenging for the PSL.
