Khumalo shines at Ipswich

Johannesburg - Former Bafana Bafana skipper Bongani Khumalo has impressed Ipswich Town in another trial game.

According to the Soccer-Ladum website, the 26-year-old defender hopes to extend his stay in English football, even though there is no place for him at his parent club, Tottenham Hotspur.

Khumalo already played in one pre-season game for the Tractor Boys before Tuesday night’s 2-1 at Gillingham.

Ipswich manager Mick McCarthy had been impressed by Khumalo’s first showing against Crawley Town, and he has once again had good things to say about the articulate Swazi-born former Supersport United star.

Khumalo was under the microscope alongside fellow trialists Frederic Veseli and Titus Bramble, and according to McCarthy they all emerged with credit.

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
