Ajax Cape Town have done good business to snap up a central defender.
It’s just a pity they couldn’t get Isaac Nhlapo to join mid-season.
Nhlapo signed a pre-contract from Platinum Stars and what often happens in SA football is that the club then terminates the players’ deal or just lets him go to the new club.
The Urban Warriors sure could use a boost for their defence, although they have done extremely well in the last few games to move all the way up to ninth on the standings, they have still conceded more goals than scored.
And with things so tight on the table, just three points separates them from fifth, goal difference could come into play when deciding the top eight.
