According to KickOff, Ferreira revealed that Wits has the intention of bringing the goalkeeper to Wits next season after the 18-year-old penned a  pre-contract.

“We have sealed the pre-contract with Thakasani,” said Ferreira.

“This is a deal that we have done with our minds on next season. This is an 18-year-old keeper.”

Wits already have Moeneeb Josephs as their first choice while the aging and ever reliable Rowen Fernandez is a good second choice. In the youth ranks, Noah Cohen and Jethren Barr will be joined by Mbanjwa.
