At 24 years old, Maduna has already racked up more than 80 appearances for Usuthu since making his debut in 2018. He's shown glimpses of his potential but has struggled with consistency.
The versatile midfielder came through AmaZulu's development ranks as one of the country's most promising prospects. The attacking midfielder had his breakthrough season with Usuthu in the 2019/20 season where he made 25 appearances for the Durban outfit, starting 22 of those matches.

Maduna was a long-time target for Soweto giants Kaizer Chiefs, who eventually dropped their interest as the midfielder's struggles continued at the Durban-based outfit.
At Spurs, the once promising star will have a chance to start on a clean slate and perhaps live up to the potential he shown in previous years.
The Urban Warriors are stuck at the foot of the DStv Premiership table with just one win from 16 matches.
