Former North-West University (NWU) and Varsity Football player Xola Mlambo has signed with Premier Soccer League team TS Galaxy for the 2022/2023 season.

Xola was recently released by AmaZulu FC where he plied his trade last season after joining the club from Pirates in 2020.

He will reunite with former NWU teammate and TS Galaxy player, Orebotse Bobo Mongae, who has recently extended his contract with TS Galaxy until 2025.

Xola was part of the NWU team that took part in Varsity Sports first Varsity Football season in 2013.

NWU Coach Karabo Masehela says he is happy for Xola to have joined TS Galaxy.

“It is a great move and a boost for TS Galaxy. I am looking forward to the combination of Xola and Bobo at TS Galaxy if they get a chance to play together.” 

Karabo says Varsity Football has played an important role in launching most players’ professional football careers.

 “I am very proud of the two former NWU players who are plying their football careers with TS Galaxy,” says coach Karabo.
