Marumo Gallants have stretched their recruitment hands beyond the borders yet again as they continue seeking solutions in their bid to avoid relegation.
After bringing in Congolese forward Roland Teddy Okouri, Marumo have now turned to Rael Lolala.

Lolala is a Congolese born in Switzerland and was most recently in the books of Hetten FC in Saudi Arabia where he terminated his contract in December.
The 26-year-old is well travelled and has played for Neftochimik Burgas and Lokomotiv Sofia in Bulgaria, Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya (Iraq), Toronto FC (Canada) and several clubs in Switzerland.
He has featured in the Asian Champions League.
Lolala arrived at Marumo last week before the club left for their CAF Confederation Cup match in Algeria and has made enough of an impression to be signed.
Marumo recently released Kenyan Sven Yidah leaving them with Cheick Soumaro and Ismael Toure (both Ivory Coast) and Ismail Watenga (Uganda) as the three foreigners.
Okouri became the fourth and Lolala will be the fifth.
Okouri's work permit application has already gone through and he could make his debut against Mamelodi Sundowns in the Nedbank Cup on Thursday or the league tie against TS Galaxy on Sunday.
