SuperSport United have confirmed the departure of striker Thabo Mnyamane following the expiry of his contract on 30 June.

The 27-year-old has spent the last four seasons at Matsatsantsa but fell down the pecking order and found game time hard to come by in recent times.

Mnyamane was signed from the University of Pretoria before the start of the 2016-17 campaign and went on to score 16 goals and assisted a further seven from 63 appearances in all competitions for United.

The former North-West University attacker went on to win four major titles during his time at United, including two Nedbank Cup trophies and two MTN8 titles, while also playing a huge rule in helping SuperSport reach the final of the Caf Confederation Cup in 2017.

‘SuperSport United FC would like to confirm the departure of forward Thabo Mnyamane,’ read a statement from the club on Wednesday evening.

Meanwhile, head coach Kaitano Tembo had kind words for the striker upon his departure.

‘Thabo is a true professional and I really enjoyed working with him. He’s a very humble, respectful and talented player. It was very unfortunate that injuries hampered his progress at the club,’ said Tembo.

‘We will always cherish the moments and success we have shared together and commend him for the contribution he has done for the club on and off the field.’
