HARARE – Kuda Mahachi, the 30-year-old attacker, has joined Manica Diamonds in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League on a two-year contract.

Mahachi was reportedly being pursued by Dynamos and Yadah Stars, but he opted to sign with Manica Diamonds.

He found himself without a club after being released by Medeama SC in Ghana in January, just five months into his one-year contract.

Mahachi previously had a lucrative contract with South Africa’s SuperSport United, but he lost it after being accused of physically injuring his son. He was acquitted of the charges in court.

After spending over a year on the sidelines, Mahachi was signed by Medeama SC, but his time there was marked by limited appearances and only one goal. He was released by the club due to fitness struggles.

Mahachi previously played in South Africa, where he turned out for SuperSport United, Orlando Pirates, Mamelodi Sundowns, and Golden Arrows.

This is his second stint in the local premiership, having previously played for Bantu Rovers, Chicken Inn, and Highlanders.
