Platinum Stars defender, James Mofokeng, has surfaced at Chippa United in his attempt to get game time this season.

Mofokeng struggled for game time during his time at Stars.

Chippa’s general manager, Wanda Mbenguzana, told the Siya crew that the club is in the process of signing Mofokeng on loan for the remainder of the season.

“We have James with us. We are going to sign him. It’s going to be a loan deal,” said Mbenguzana.

The Chilli Boys want to have a strong team to push for promotion back to the PSL next season. The Cape side is positioned at the top of the NFD standings tied with neighbours and second-placed, Vasco da Gama on 31 points.

The two teams from the Mother City will come up against each other on Saturday in what should be an entertaining game as they both want to own the top spot.
