Durban City FC has secured a free transfer for Rwanda international striker Byiringiro Lague on a two-year deal, adding depth to their attack. The 25-year-old, previously with Police FC, is expected in Durban on 7 August.
What the fee means for the summer budget
Durban City has made eight new signings already this season, including Gaston Sirino, Junior Papier, Kabelo Mofokeng, Lifa Makua, Siya Msomi, John Mokone, Tylo Sanger, and Seth Green. The club operates under a modest budget, and Lague’s arrival on a free transfer provides immediate squad reinforcement without financial strain. Kadodia’s cautious approach reflects the club’s strategy of balancing cost and quality.
Where he fits in the current squad
Lague is an attacker, and his versatility allows him to play as a winger or forward. With the departure of several players, the club needs fresh options up front. His experience in the Rwanda national team adds international quality to the Betway Premiership.
How the signing compares to recent moves
Unlike some recent signings that involved significant fees, Lague’s contract is free, making him a cost-effective addition. The club’s recent activity shows a focus on building a competitive squad without overspending, a strategy that has helped them remain in the top half of the league.
What this means for the upcoming fixtures
Durban City’s next matches include a series of home games that will test their depth. Lague’s arrival could be crucial as the team navigates a demanding schedule. Fans can follow the club’s progress on our fixtures page.
