Simba Bhora Football Club has sent a strong signal of intent ahead of the new season with a double transfer announcement, significantly strengthening both their defense and attack in one swift move.
The club has officially welcomed Namibian international central defender Kennedy Eib and experienced Zimbabwean attacking midfielder Adrian Silla to their squad.
The club bolstered its backline with the acquisition of the 28-year-old Kennedy Eib. The commanding defender joins Simba Bhora after a stint with the Bucks Buccaneers and brings a wealth of experience from the Namibian league, having previously played for Mighty Gunners, Orlando Pirates, and Chula Chula FC.
As a capped international for Namibia, Eib is expected to provide immediate defensive solidity, leadership, and valuable big-game experience to the Simba Bhora rearguard.
In a simultaneous move to enhance their creative options, Simba Bhora secured the signature of 28-year-old playmaker Adrian Silla. The attacking midfielder arrives with proven Premier Soccer League pedigree, having featured for Zimbabwean giants Highlanders and CAPS United before his time at Green Fuel FC.
Known for his technical ability and vision, Silla is set to be a key orchestrator in the final third, adding crucial domestic league experience to the squad.
Announced through the club’s official social media channels, these signings represent a clear statement of ambition from Simba Bhora. By addressing two critical areas of the pitch with seasoned professionals—one an international defender and the other a proven domestic creative force—the club has balanced its squad effectively.
Both players are expected to join the team for pre-season preparations immediately as Simba Bhora builds a competitive squad for the challenges ahead.
