Bafana Bafana defender Siyanda Xulu is seemingly headed to Europe after he and his agent Lebohang Mashishi were spotted at the airport leaving the country.
Xulu has been unattached for more than ten months now after depart SuperSport United at the end of the last season.
The Bafana Bafana international had a single-season stint with SuperSport, joining them in July 2023 from Azerbaijan's Turan Tovuz.
The Durban-born defender didn’t have much playing time at Matsatsantsa, featuring only in 16 matches across all competitions.
Xulu also contributed to South Africa's bronze medal win at the AFCON tournament in Ivory Coast last year.
XULU SET TO SIGN FOR EUROPEAN CLUB
According to FARPost, sources close the player indicated that Xulu has indeed found a new club abroad.
This come after several clubs failed to secure his services. He was, at some point, linked with AmaZulu FC and Marumo Gallants in the Betway Premiership.
Meanwhile, outside the country, the Libyan side Al-Ittihad wanted to sign him before they went for Thatayaone Ditlhokwe who was playing for Chiefs.
He was also reportedly in demand in Malta, Sudan and some of the clubs in South America.
Last September, Xulu's potential transfer to Saudi Pro League club Al Wehda FC fell through. Josef Zinnbauer, former Orlando Pirates coach, was in charge of Wehda at the time, had the final say on player signings and he ultimately decided against it.
During the time where he was unattached, Xulu has been training alone preparing himself for when he gets the club.
