Cape Town - Former Absa Premiership winger Sameehg Doutie has joined Swedish second division outfit IFK Varnamo after parting ways with previous club Jamshedpur FC in the Indian Premier League.

The 29-year-old spent the early part of his career in the PSL and saw playing time for the likes of Ajax Cape Town, Orlando Pirates, SuperSport United and Bidvest Wits.
