South African midfielder Thabo Cele has completed a move to Polish Ekstraklasa outfit RSK Radomiak Radom.

Cele was without a club after parting ways with Portuguese club CD Cova Piedade, where he netted five goals and assisted a further three from 73 appearances across all competitions.

The 24-year-old has since ended speculation surrounding his future, joining the club as a free transfer after signing a two-year contract with the option to extend his stay for a further year.

Over the course of his career, Cele has scored seven goals and claimed three assists from 96 appearances playing for the likes of Real SC, SL Benfica B and CD Cova Piedade.

The Polish outfit released the following statement:

“24-year-old Thabo Cele has signed a contract with Radomiak Radom! The contract with the South African midfielder will last until the end of the 2022/2023 season with an option to extend it for one year,” the club said.
