Simplex, Ngalande at Master Security FC

March 2, 2017 Elijah Phimbi-Nyasa Times 1 Comment

Ex-Mighty Be Forward experience goalkeeper Simplex Nthala and Bidvest Wits attacker Robbin Ngalande have been spotted training with Central Region new TNM Super League promoted side Master Security Services FC.

Ngalande: At Masters

Club Head Coach Benjamin Kumwenda confirmed that indeed the players started trainning with the club this week.

But details of the agreement between Nthala and the Club as well as Ngalande are yet to be revealed.

Nthala returned to Malawi this year after dumping his Mozambican Club Maxaquene FC with two years remaining on his contract.

He claimed the team was in breach of other contractual agreements.

On the other hand, Ngalande returned from South Africa where he was loaned out to Platinum Stars following his struggle to enjoy game time at Wits.

Another notable face currently training with Master Security is that of Wyson Nkhana of Civo United.

Dust is also refusing to settle in a transfer move involving Azam Tigers versatile attacker Yamikani Chester who openly delared he want to move out of the club.

The player said he is ready to buy out the remaining part of his contract and since the announcement was made, Chester has attracted interest from big clubs including Nyasa Big Bullets and Mighty Be Forward Wanderers.
