Malawi star Chiukepo in line for South Africa’s Aces move

Malawi national team and Nyasa Big Bullets FC striker Chiukepo Msowoya has again been linked with a possible move to South Africa ABSA Premiership League, this time with Mpumalanga Black Aces.

Chiukepo had a stint at Orlando Pirates.

South African prominent football agent, Martin Sekati, has been in the country to monitor Chiukepo and confirmed an interest to take him to Aces.

Sekati said he has been monitoring Chiukepo situation and is convinced the in-form striker is good to go to South Africa.

“I might take him to Mpumalanga Black Aces,” said the agent.

“They are looking to strengthen up front this month,” he added.

Chiukepo was brought to Malawi’s top league champions while struggling for form due to among other things injury plague.

But the burly forward has proved that he has not lost his magic boots which took him to South Africa’s top league giants Orlando Pirates.

He inspired Bullets to defend the title by scoring 14 league goals to become joint top-goal scorer alongside Red Lions’ Innocent Bokosi earning himself best striker accolade at his club.

He has also been re-established his mark as a prolific national team striker having scored critical goals under the tutelage of coach Ernest Mtawali.
