Former Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Simo Bobo training with Gomora United

Former Kaizer Chiefs DStv Diski Challenge midfielder Simo Bobo is undergoing an assessment at Gomora United as he tries to revive his career in the Motsepe Foundation Championship.

The free agent has been training with the Alexandra-based club this week, with Gomora’s technical team assessing his fitness and readiness before deciding whether to offer him a contract.

Club chairman Joe Seanego confirmed Bobo’s presence at the team’s training ground and said a deal would follow if the midfielder makes a strong impression.

“Yes, I can confirm that Simo Bobo is training with us on an assessment as a free agent. If he impress technical team, he will sign,” Seanego told KickOff.

Bobo is seeking regular game time in South Africa’s second tier after previously featuring for Kaizer Chiefs’ DStv Diski Challenge side.

Gomora United have been strengthening their squad as they pursue promotion to the elite division. The club believe a player with Bobo’s experience and background at the Soweto giants could help their ambitions during the remainder of the campaign.

His assessment is expected to conclude in the coming days, after which he could sign ahead of Gomora’s upcoming fixtures.
