Sphiwe Msimango leaves Kaizer Chiefs for Stellenbosch FC TS Galaxy FC's former defender Sphiwe Msimango has completed a move to Stellenbosch FC, marking his third Betway Premiership club in as many seasons. The 29-year-old centre-back, who spent two seasons with Kaizer Chiefs, joins Stellenbosch on a deal finalized on 4 August 2026. His departure from Chiefs follows a Nedbank Cup victory in the 2024-25 season, his first major trophy. TS Galaxy FC, now sitting 7th in the Premier Soccer League with 1 point from 1 game (0W-1D-0L), will face a familiar opponent when they meet Stellenbosch later this season.

What happened? Msimango began his career with Johannesburg before moving to Highlands Park in 2017-18. He joined TS Galaxy FC in September 2020, spending three seasons with the club before signing for Kaizer Chiefs in July 2023. His experience across multiple South African clubs makes him a valuable addition to Stellenbosch’s defense.

Why it matters for TS Galaxy FC While Msimango is no longer with TS Galaxy FC, his departure highlights the club’s role in developing talent for the Betway Premiership. His move to Stellenbosch could impact future transfer negotiations, especially as TS Galaxy FC looks to strengthen their squad in the current season.

What comes next? Stellenbosch FC will now integrate Msimango into their defense, which has conceded 2 goals so far this season. Meanwhile, TS Galaxy FC, with a goal difference of 0, will focus on climbing the table, currently 2 points behind leaders Kaizer Chiefs.
