| Kick4Life have added more firepower in Thapelo Tale... |
Lesotho striker
Thapelo Tale has completed his move to silverware-chasing Kick4Life on a
six-month deal after leaving Lioli last month.
Tale joins at a
pivotal
juncture for the club.
Kick4Life are in
third place in the Vodacom Premier League, a point behind leaders Bantu and they
make their LNIG Top 8 debut on Sunday.
The Old Europa
outfit hopes Tale will provide a boost as they look to cap a historic season
for the club.
Kick4Life
director of football Chris Bullock said Tale will bring experience and increase
coach Leslie Notši’s options in the run-in.
“He will bring
experience and fits in to our style of play. He also gives us a bit more
strength in depth,” he said.
“We are
looking to secure a top four finish as well as looking to do well in the LNIG Top 8 so he will be important in trying to achieve that.”
Tale is the
latest big name player to join the revolution at Kick4Life linking up with the
likes of Thabo Masualle, Bokang Mothoana and most recently Likano Teele.
He
is also the second Lioli player to join the ambitious Old Europa project after
Nkoto Masoabi made a similar move last September.
Tale began his
career with Likhopo in 2007 before sealing a high-profile switch to Lioli at
the start of this season but he struggled for game-time with the champions.
During the
2011/12 season the 28 year-old featured for FK Srem in Serbia. He has been one
of the country’s most prolific strikers over the past decade and is Lesotho’s
all-time leading scorer in the COSAFA Castle Cup with four goals across two
tournaments.
Tale is in
line to make his debut when Kick4Life face Sundawana in the first leg of the
sides’ LNIG Top 8 quarterfinal on Sunday at the Maputsoe DiFA Stadium.
