Philani 'Iniesta' Cele Is Getting A Chance With Mbombela United

Philani Cele, who became known as 'Iniesta' during his time with Kaizer Chiefs, has been given a chance to try and rekindle his career in the National First Division.

Cele, who is 27-years-old, has had a tough few years as he's battled for game time in the Premier Soccer League, but – as reported in this week's issue of Soccer Laduma – he's now getting an opportunity at Mbombela United.

The midfielder wasn't given much of an opportunity to impress last season while with Richards Bay FC in the NFD, and despite being registered by the Glamour Boys back in 2013, he has made just 21 senior appearances since then.

As explained in edition 1093 of Soccer Laduma, it remains to be seen when Cele will start training with the side or how long he will be given to impress Milton Dlamini and his technical team, but it is something that is on the horizon.

The Siya crew will keep an eye on the former Amakhosi man's movements to see whether he is able to secure a fresh start with Mbombela or not.
