Former Kaizer Chiefs defender Sima Bobo could be on the verge of an interesting career move, with Motsepe Foundation Championship side Gomora United reportedly assessing the possibility of signing the young defender ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.
Bobo is currently training with the Alexandra-based outfit as a free agent, with the club believed to be considering a permanent deal. If the move goes through, he could reunite with former Kaizer Chiefs teammate Xolani Cossa, creating an exciting connection between two players who previously enjoyed success together in the Amakhosi development structures.
The pair were part of the Kaizer Chiefs reserve team that won the 2024/25 DStv Diski Challenge (DDC) championship. Their familiarity with each other's playing styles could be an advantage for Gomora United as they look to strengthen their squad.
Bobo recently ended his nine-year association with Kaizer Chiefs' development structures, departing Naturena ahead of the current season. He also gained valuable experience in Botswana after spending the second half of last season with Mochudi Centre Chiefs.
Meanwhile, Cossa joined Gomora United on a season-long loan from Kaizer Chiefs in August 2026. The 22-year-old defender is expected to benefit from regular first-team football before returning to Naturena to continue his development.
Gomora United are also assessing former Richards Bay FC winger Ntando Mbambo, who could provide additional attacking options. The 20-year-old previously impressed with Ethekwini Coastals FC, recording 11 goals and eight assists in 27 appearances.
The club's recruitment efforts come as they seek to improve their league position. Gomora were sitting 10th with 12 points from 10 matches, having recorded three wins, three draws and four defeats.
Although no permanent agreements have been confirmed, Bobo's potential arrival could offer him an important opportunity to establish himself in senior professional football while strengthening Gomora's defensive options.
