George Chota: Mbeya City Plot Move for Mtibwa Sugar and Tanzania Striker

Tanzania striker George Chota of Mtibwa Sugar is being linked with a move to Mbeya City as the Premier League club look to bolster their attacking options. The 32-year-old forward is the subject of interest from the Mbeya side, with discussions understood to be at an exploratory stage rather than advanced negotiations.

Chota, who plays as a central striker, has been a prominent figure for Mtibwa Sugar, operating in the frontline for the Tanzanian club in recent seasons. His experience in domestic competition is thought to appeal to Mbeya City as they assess options to add depth and know-how to their attack ahead of the new campaign.

At 32, Chota is viewed as a short-term but ready-made option who would not require adaptation to the demands of Tanzanian top-flight football. Mbeya City are believed to be targeting players with established records in the local game, with Chota fitting the profile of a seasoned attacker capable of leading the line.

The forward’s current deal at Mtibwa Sugar has not been made public, and it is unclear at this stage whether Mbeya City would need to negotiate a transfer fee or explore alternative arrangements. For now, Chota remains a Mtibwa Sugar player while Mbeya City weigh up their next move in the market.
