Highlanders' striker Cleopas "Balotelli" Dube who has been frustrated by being kept on the bench, left the country yesterday afternoon for a week-long trial stint at South African First Division side Witbank Spurs.
Dube was a second half substitute during Highlanders' goalless draw with Bantu Rovers, replacing out of sorts Ozias Zibande.
Highlanders are hoping that just like defender Khumbulani Banda who was never given Premiership gametime but made it at South African Premiership side Maritzburg United, Dube will make the grade at Witbank Spurs.
"Highlanders is a big brand as it provides a stage for one to showcase talent. Our philosophy is clear, if we sign players and they want to move for greener pastures we let them go and it is our hope that Cleopas will do well at Witbank Spurs," said Gumede.
The veteran administrator announced the signing of former Tripple B defender Webster Chingozha who becomes the third mid-season signing for Bosso after attacking midfielders Tapiwa Dephistara and King Nadolo.
