Gabadinho Mhango, a 30-year-old Malawian striker, has had his fair share of ups and downs in his career, starting from his time with the Orlando Pirates. Recently, rumors have linked him to a possible move to Kaizer Chiefs, which has now been replaced with interest from Gavin United’s SuperSport.

According to FARPosts’ Otis Ntshangase, Mhango may reunite with coach Gavin Hunt, with whom he worked at Bidvest Wits. This move would be a new chapter for Mhango and an opportunity to make an impact under the guidance of a familiar face.

The decision will significantly impact the former star’s coaching career.
