Bongani Khumalo - Cardiff City trial

Mon Jun 13, 2011 9:52 pm

Taken from Bongani Khumalo's twitter account 2 hours ago: "Got trails for Cardiff City FC though... But I'm sure I'mma make them yo cc"

Bongani Sandile Khumalo (born 6 January 1987) is a South African footballer who plays as a defender for Tottenham Hotspur and South Africa.

Khumalo was named in the South African squad for the 2009 Confederations Cup and 2010 FIFA World Cup, both in South Africa. On 22 June 2010, Khumalo scored the first goal after 21 minutes against France as South Africa finished their World Cup campaign with a 2–1 win.

Khumalo maybe our first signing??? :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Very interesting. Is he out of contract at Spurs then? Also did anyone see how he did for Preston in the second half of last season?

Edit: Just read in his description on his twitter account the words "paper motivated", presumably referring to money as paper. Lovely.

It most certainly is his real one, mentions of South Africa, football, etc.

I don't think it's him.

His middle name according to his Facebook account linked from his Twitter account is different to the one on Wikipedia. I realise that Wikipedia can be edited by anyone, but still doesn't add up.
