JOHANNESBURG – SuperSport United on Tuesday announced that striker Fagrie Lakay has moved to Bidvest Wits with immediate effect.
Former Santos player Lakay has signed a pre-contract with Wits, and both clubs have agreed on the deal.
The 21-year old leaves Matsatsantsa with three trophies and a Caf Confederation Cup runners-up medal in his three-and-a-half-year spell at the club.
Moving in the other direction is Mxolisi Macuphu, who will be on loan to SuperSport United until the end of the season.
The 29-year-old Macuphu was recently called up to the national team for the crucial Afcon qualifier clash against Libya after a very impressive start of the 2018/19 season, and will look to recapture that form during his stay at Matsatsantsa.
