Cape Town City is open to making more signings

Eric Tinkler says that while he is happy with his current squad, the Cape Town City boss is still open to making more signings.

The Citizens’ have already made a number of quality acquisitions, including Haashim Domingo, Kamohelo Mokotjo, Fortune Makaringe, Carlinhos, Kayden Francis, Elson Sithole, Sibusiso Ziba, Lefa Aphane and Prins Tjiueza.

The team ultimately proved their quality in the MTN8 quarter-finals with a 1-0 victory over Sekhukhune United last weekend.

But with the transfer window still open and a number of club’s still offering players to City, Tinkler hasn’t ruled out making more additions.

The Citizens boss said on FARPost: “I think we have signed more than enough.

“We made about 10 new signings. It’s massive for the club.

“The last time we have done that was back in 2016 when we only had 11 players in pre-season. So, you should never say never because the window period is still open, and anything can happen.”

Tinkler continued: “If one of our players gets a deal somewhere with a massive amount of money and then he leaves, it leaves a space.

“I still get calls from agents every day, sending me profiles of their players and foreign players, and I don’t have space for foreign players. I still say “no”, but they continue to send it.

“However, I’m glad that they do because you don’t know what might happen, especially in the next coming weeks. But at the moment, we are not planning to make any signings.”

City face Orlando Pirates in the MTN8 semi-finals at Cape Town Stadium on 27 August.
