SuperSport United have officially announced the signing of former Kaizer Chiefs and TS Galaxy striker Samir Nurkovic on a one-and-half-year deal.
“Samir is a proven number 9 target man with a good track record and who will fit in well with our style of play, which looks to get crosses in from wide areas and to capitalise on set pieces,” SuperSport CEO Stanley Matthews said in a statement.
Nurkovic, who has also played for Royal AM in the Betway Premiership, is looking forward to a fresh start.
“I am so happy and grateful to be at a wonderful and amazing club like SuperSport United. I am very much looking forward to my first training session at the club, getting to meet my new teammates and getting to work,” the 32-year-old said.
Nurkovic will only be available for selection from January once his work permit has been received by the club.
He has scored 30 goals in 72 starts for his various clubs in South Africa.
