Baroka make decision on former Buccaneer

Baroka FC head coach Morgan Mammila has made his decision on one of the club's trialists ahead of the 2024/25 Motsepe Foundation Championship season.

The former Chippa United mentor is working hard behind the scenes building a formidable side that will be gunning for automatic promotion.

After the acquisition of top striker Siphelele Mthembu, he has now added ex-Orlando Pirates and Sekhukhune United midfielder Collins Makgaka to the squad.

After failing to settle at the aforementioned Johannesburg outfits, the Marble Hall-born dead-ball specialist has decided to go back home to Limpopo to reignite his God-given talent.

The 28-year-old rejoins the side that helped him launch his professional football career in 2015.

He was part of the Bakgaga team that won the 2018 Telkom Knockout.

Additionally, Makgaka also won the MTN8 with Pirates in 2020 under the mentorship of Josef Zinnbauer.

He spent a few seasons at Bucs, before he was deemed surplus to requirements. The player then moved to Babina Noko, where his struggles for game-time continued.

Mammila previously said he would be open to signing Makgaka as soon as he was in good physical shape.

It is not quite clear yet how long Makgaka has signed for, but KickOff understands the club will be unveiling all their new signings on Saturday at Baroka FC Village's Moshe Kabudi Mphahlele's Conference Hall.

Last season, the Limpopo side missed out on being promoted to the Betway Premiership after failing to win the promotional/relegation play-offs.
