Former Mamelodi Sundowns and Al-Ahly forward Percy Tau has completed a move to Vietnamese side Nam Dinh FC for the 2025/26 season.
Tau, 32, joins the club as a free agent since leaving Qatar SC.
“Nam Dinh Steel Club would like to respectfully introduce the team’s new player – Percy Muzi Tau, a star from the South African national team,” the club said in their statement.
“Thep Xanh Nam Dinh pursues a fiery attacking style of play. And the presence of Percy Tau promises to bring more explosive scoring moments to the team.”
Tau now joins Blom at the Asia Champions League club that is currently the defending champions of the V.League 1. He is expected to feature in the Champions League next season with his new club.
Meanwhile Mamelodi Sundowns announced the departure of Thembinkosi Lorch almost two years after joining the Tshwane giants from Orlando Pirates.
Lorch is set to rejoin Wydad Athletic Club following a successful six-month loan stint at the Moroccan football heavyweights.
“Thank you, Nyoso! After two unforgettable years, one league title, 26 appearances, seven goals and four assists, the Yellow Nation thanks and celebrates Thembinkosi Lorch,” a club statement read.
“Wishing you all the best as you start the next chapter of your journey!”
Lorch played some of his best football under current Wydad coach Mohamed Amine Benhachem, especially at the 2025 Fifa Club World Cup in the USA. The Botola Pro League giants have since decided to re-sign him on a permanent deal.
