SuperSport snap up DeMbare keeper

Zimbabwe African Nations Championship (CHAN) goalkeeper George Chigova is heading to South Africa after Premiership club SuperSport United signed him this week.

The 22-year-old, who plays for champions Dynamos had a good outing during the just ended CHAN where he conceded only two goals during six games and helped his country finish fourth.

A SuperSport official said the Zimbabwean signed a three-year deal and plans to join Pretoria outfit SuperSport in mid-year ahead of the 2014-2015 season. Chigova is currently playing in the Orange CAF Champions League with Dynamos.

Chigova becomes the second Zimbabwean to be signed by a South African Premiership side after impressing at CHAN.
