AmaZulu pair loaned out to Marumo Gallants

AmaZulu are to loan striker Sede Junior Dion (31) and defender Yanga Mjoli to struggling Marumo Gallants for the rest of the season, the club announced on Monday.

As the transfer window opened for business on Monday, AmaZulu said the 31-year-old forward and 21-year-old centre-back have signed six-month deals.

Ivory Coast-born spent two seasons at Gallants before moving to AmaZulu in mid-2022.

Mjoli was on loan at Pretoria Callies in the Motsepe Foundation Championship in the first half of the season.

“This strategic move aims to provide both players with increased game time and further opportunities for development,” said an AmaZulu statement.

AmaZulu had new signing Bongani Zungu on the bench last Saturday for their goalless draw in the derby against Lamontville Golden Arrows but did not use him.

They have also signed Sandile Mthethwa from Orlando Pirates.
