Foreign players who left a mark in Botswana :: Mmegi Online

The Botswana Premier League (BPL) might have attracted some mediocre talent from abroad, players who arrived with big reputations, only to fail to live up to expectation. But the league has, equally, seen some big talents from abroad in the likes of Joseph Chikoti, Francis Chisenga and Mandla Balanda. Mmegi Sport Staff Writer, BOITUMELO KHUTSAFALO takes a look at game changing foreign players to grace local shores in recent times

1. Terrence Mandaza

The Zimbabwean goal poacher arrived at TASC as an unknown player but scored crucial goals. Rollers lured him down south in 2008. Although, he immediately won the hearts of Rollers faithfuls, it was not until his second season that he unleashed his best. He formed a deadly combination with Mohammed Chawila and Joel Mogorosi to help Rollers win a league and Coca-Cola Cup double. South African side, Platinum Stars snatched him before he moved to Maritzburg and Thailand. He returned to Rollers in 2016 and won his second league title with Rollers as well as his second golden boot before he joined Jwaneng Galaxy. He is now playing for Mochudi Centre Chiefs in the lower division.
