After parting ways with misfiring Zimbabwean striker, Baloni Chiseko, Gaborone United (GU) have turned their focus on signing 30-year-old Zambian forward, Makundika Sankala.

GU dismissed Chiseko this week after the player was deemed surplus to requirements, despite being at the club for only a few months.Chiseko had found it difficult to settle, managing only one goal in nine matches. The club gave Chiseko abundant opportunities to prove himself, but he failed to rise to the occasion. GU reportedly gave the striker an ultimatum to find the net in the last two matches against Mochudi Centre Chiefs and ECCO City Greens, but still the player failed to fire. GU public relations officer (PRO), City Senne said Chiseko failed to perform to expectations.

"Chiseko has failed to perform to satisfaction. He has been on probation, which we had extended to see if the striker could score goals for us, but that did not happen," Senne said.Senne said that ever since GU signed the player, he managed to score only a single goal against BDF XI. However, he said despite the goal drought, Chiseko remained a good player but was simply not up to GU standards.
