Despite the buzz surrounding his recent unveiling as a new signing for Mozambique’s UD Songo, midfielder Manuel Kambala is actually staying put at Polokwane City for the upcoming season.
This revelation comes as a surprise, given the excitement around his move.
Manuel Kambala was recently introduced by UD Songo as their latest acquisition.
Alongside him, the club also welcomed former Mamelodi Sundowns player Luis Miquissone.
The announcement was clear: “UD Songo is thrilled to bring back Manuel Kambala,” read the club’s official statement.
Kambala has had a varied career in South Africa, representing Baroka FC from 2019 to 2022, Magesi FC in 2023, and Polokwane City in the 2023/2024 season.
UD Songo expressed their enthusiasm about his return, stating, “Management of Songo Sports Union welcomes Manuel Kambala.”
Why Kambala Is Staying at Polokwane City
So why is Kambala sticking with Polokwane City despite the recent announcements? Sources indicate that there are ongoing contract disputes between Kambala and UD Songo.
Unless a resolution is reached, it looks like Kambala will remain with Polokwane City for the season.
Kambala joined Polokwane City after a stint at Magesi FC, which was in the first division at the time. His journey to South Africa began in 2019 when he was recommended to Baroka FC by former coach Wedson Nyirenda.
