JUST IN: Matuludi finally lands his big move!
by Ernest Fakude · KickOffKickOff can reveal that Thabang Matuludi's future has been settled with the Bafana Bafana international now set for an exciting new chapter following a difficult start to the season.
Matuludi has long been linked with a move away from Polokwane City, where he has not yet featured since the beginning of the campaign after returning from the FIFA World Cup with Bafana Bafana.
Now, this website has been informed that the fullback has now signed a deal with Mamelodi Sundowns, who have beaten Orlando Pirates to his signature.
It is a three-year deal with an option for a further two years, according to well-placed sources.
The Bafana Bafana international has been at the centre of a long-running transfer battle between two South African giants, with both Sundowns and Pirates making a strong push to secure his services.
Matuludi’s performances for Polokwane City have seen his stock rise considerably over the past two seasons, with the right-back establishing himself as one of the standout defenders in the Betway Premiership. His progress was further rewarded with a place in South Africa’s 2026 FIFA World Cup squad.
