Siyethemba Sithebe, a new attacking midfielder for Amakhosi, is unique because of his strong footwork and shots.

The 29-year-old from Newcastle, KwaZulu Natal reportedly refused AmaZulu’s new offer before signing a pre-contract with Amakhosi, as The South African website earlier reported, sending AmaZulu’s management into complete meltdown.

The reason the Soweto giants moved quickly was incredibly clear.

Let’s examine this unique quality of Sithebe’s legs and feet without going into too much detail about the past.

How long have we bemoaned the PSL players’ failure to use both feet in play? However, AmaZulu supporters were fortunate to witness Sithebe’s use of both his right and left feet.

See how Sithebe shocked defenders and goalkeepers in the video below.

Yusuf Maart and Dillan Solomons, two other new players, are both right-footers who frequently fire powerful shots with their left foot, which should thrill Chiefs fans even more.

On Saturday, August 6, 2022, at 17:30, Amakhosi will begin the new season against Royal AM.
