AmaZulu have signed attacking midfielder Langelihle Mhlongo, who was previously at Richards Bay.
The move is made outside of the transfer window as Mhlongo is a free agent after being released by Richards Bay at the end of last season.
The 24-year-old spent three seasons with KwaZulu-Natal neighbours Richards Bay, where he scored a single goal in 49 starts.

Before his professional spell with the Natal Rich Boys, Mhlongo honed his talent with local
amateur sides Magic Future Stars and Ethekwini Coastal.
“I feel happy and honoured to play for a club I grew up wanting to represent — a club like
AmaZulu Football Club,” he said in a club statement.
“I kindly ask for the supporters’ backing; I am ready to give my all to help the team achieve its objectives. I look forward to playing alongside my new teammates and working with coach Arthur Zwane and his technical team. I would also like to thank my previous club for everything they did for me,” Mhlongo said.
