Black Leopards are making efforts to rectify their goalkeeping troubles that saw them concede the most goals during the just-ended season by stepping up their bid to bring Zimbabwe international goalkeeper Washington Arubi.
Leopards were so porous in defence that some of the 58 goals that they conceded were comical mistakes by Posnett Omony and Azwindini Maphaha.
The club is now pressing hard its mission to bring Arubi â€" who currently plays for Zimbabwean champions Dynamos â€" to Limpopo next season. Arubi's deal will be wrapped up as soon as the end of June, KickOff revealed.
Apparently Leopards will actually be recruiting two new goalkeepers as they will also be releasing two of the three goalies that they have in their books.
The club's management has admitted that their rear-guard was their weakness this past season.
Head coach Sunday Chidzambwa, who hails from Zimbabwe and has previously coached Dynamos, has been tasked to muscle his influence towards bringing Arubi to Leopards.
The 27-year-old is an established goalkeeper who has played for two of Zimbabwe's biggest clubs in Dynamos and Highlanders and was recently lined up for a move to Poland.
