BULAWAYO – Highlanders are on the brink of securing the signature of Zimbabwe national team Under-20 attacking midfielder Mafious Junior Chihweta on a three-year deal.
Sources close to the negotiations, have revealed the “deal is done” between the 19-year old and the Bulawayo giants.
“The deal is as good as done, it is as good as saying Chiweta is now Highlanders player,” the sources confirmed.
Nicknamed Sugar, Chiweta is joining Bosso from Bulawayo’s Ajax Hotspur where spent six months at the club.
The 19-year-old winger caught the eye of coach Kelvin Kaindu who is rebuilding the squad for the 2025 PSL season.
Bosso lost key players including Lynoth Chikuhwa, Peter Muduhwa, Marvelous Chigumira and Godfrey Makaruse.
Chihweta was a member of the Warriors U-20 squad that impressed during the AFCON qualifiers in South Africa last year.
This means Chihweta will reunite with his national teammates Prince Ndlovu and Mvelo Khoza who were part of the U-20 squad and are already in Bosso’s setup.
