The Premier Soccer League has released the list of players registered by Platinum Stars, to date, for the 2013/14 season.
It's been a relatively quiet transfer window for Dikwena, despite the fact that they lost important midfielders, Thuso Phala and Enocent Mkhabela, to SuperSport United at the end of the season. They have, however, made a few impressive signings.
Three of Stars' acquisitions really stick out, that of Sibusiso Hadebe, Issa Sarr and Takesure Chinyama, all of whom could play an important role for them this season.
