Castle Lager Premiership Top goal-scorer for the 2014 season, Charles Sibanda had hoped for a reunion with Zambian expatriate Kelvin Kaindu at his new side Triangle United this coming season, MatchDay has learnt.

Sources close to the player revealed that the former Highlander’s marksmen had been patiently waiting for his former boss to call on his services but continued silence from Kaindu who was fired as head coach from Bosso after a string of poor results convinced the striker to look elsewhere.

Kaindu’s decision not to sign him could have been fueled by the player’s past cases of indiscipline. Sibanda has been accused of playing under the influence of weed; and together with Joel Ngodzo had been fingered as the ring leaders of Bosso’s indisciplined squad of 2014.

“Kaindu and Charles discussed the prospects of him playing for Triangle this season and it did look promising.

“It is the silence which led him to look for other options outside Zimbabwe before settling for How Mine,” said the source.

Sibanda has since settled for the Luke Masomere coached side, How Mine which has pulled together one of the strongest squads to be fielded over the past seasons afer a failed trial stint at Zambian side Power Dynamo who are being coached by former Hwange coach Tenat Chilumba.

The side had been hoping to beef up its strike force before their 2015 CAF Champions League campaign.

Chikurupati, the Metallon Gold sponsored side has joined him with 2013 Soccer Star of the Year Tawanda Muparati and former teammate Devon Chafa, former Bosso first choice goalie and teammate Munyaradzi Diya and first runners up to the Soccer Star of the Year accolade, Limited Chikafa.

It has also been linked with ZPC midfielder Pride Tafirenyka and Dynamos strikers Rodrick Mutuma and Simba Sithole.

On the other hand Kelvin Kaindu is reported to have raided his fomer paymasters for the second time, signing lanky defender Dumisani ‘Fazo’ Ndlovu after having clinched the signature of Pascal Manhanga who is making his return to the sugar town.

Manhanga had been signed by Kaindu during last season’s mid season transfer window.

“The move to Triangle could have been good for Charles as Kaindu has faith in the player however the How Mine squad which masomere has assembled is first class and will provide him with that extra competitoion to help him develop as a player,” added the source.
