Cape Town City have confirmed that midfielder Ayanda Patosi has left the club on a season-long loan to join UAE Pro-League outfit Baniyas Club.

Patosi revived his career in Cape Town after a torrid period abroad and earned himself a loan move in January to Iranian side Esteghlal FC.

They, however, could not agree on a permanent deal for the forward and he returned to Cape Town at the conclusion of his six-month loan.

City, though, have announced that the 26-year-old has now completed a year-long loan to the Abu Dhabi top flight.

‘Cape Town City and @BaniyasClub have reached an agreement for midfielder @AyandaPatosi. The deal will see Ayanda spend 1y on loan in the UAE Pro League, with an option to buy at a further fixed amount,’ read a statement from the club via their Twitter page.

‘We wish Pato well as he continues to dominate outside SA borders!’
