Chippa United have handed 17-year-old midfielder Asanele Bonani a contract with the DStv Premiership club.
Bonani excelled for the Chilli Boys’ MultiChoice Diski team as they ended the recently completed campaign in fourth place.
The Grade 11 learner from Masiphathisane Senior Secondary school has now linked up with the Chippa first team for pre-season training.
The midfielder’s representative Eldon Smith told KickOff: “Yes, he signed a professional contract last month.
“He is training with the senior team now. He can play as a left-winger, right-winger and also as an attacking midfielder.
“He is adapting well, and hopefully he will do well with the senior team in the new season.”
