South African midfielder Bantu Mzwakali, a seasoned player with a career spanning Ajax Cape Town, Bidvest Wits, and Moroka Swallows, has embarked on a new footballing journey in the Middle East.

The 30-year-old has officially completed his move to Saudi Arabian second division side Al-Shaeib FC, marking a significant chapter in his diverse career.

 Bantu Mzwakali’s Football Journey

Mzwakali’s journey in professional football began in Cape Town, and over the years, he has showcased his skills at various South African clubs, including Ajax Cape Town, Bidvest Wits, and Moroka Swallows.

Bantu Mzwakali is on his way to Saudi Arabia.

However, his wanderlust took him beyond the borders of South Africa, and for the past two years, he plied his trade in Europe, specifically in Georgia.

His performances earned him recognition, making him a player to watch in the Georgian league.

Following the expiration of his contract with FC Dila in the same league as Shakura, Mzwakali sought a new challenge.

Mzwakali also had a brief stint in Sweden.

Now, the 30-year-old winger has officially joined Al-Shaeib FC in the Saudi Arabian second division on a short-term contract.
