Polokwane City coach Phuti Mohafe is excited to welcome Thabang Matuludi back to action ahead of schedule after an injury lay-off.
Tholo Thabang Matuludi, born on 14 January 1999, is a South African soccer player who serves as a right-back for Polokwane City in the Premier Soccer League. While playing for Polokwane City in the National First Division, the team secured promotion to the 2023-24 South African Premier Division, marking Matuludi’s debut in the top tier.
By the 2024 winter transfer window, Matuludi had established himself as a pivotal player for Polokwane City.
There were reports in the media about interest in Matuludi from Stellenbosch FC and Cape Town City, but no transfer took place. However, during the summer transfer window, Orlando Pirates also emerged as a potential suitor.
Matuludi received a call-up to the South Africa national team for the 2024 COSAFA Cup, where he made his international debut against Mozambique. He played every minute of the competition until South Africa was eliminated.
