Lamontville Golden Arrows FC is on the verge of signing Zimbabwe international midfielder Jonah Fabisch after agreeing personal terms with the South African top-flight side. The 24-year-old midfielder has spent the past two weeks in South Africa as he works towards securing his next move after parting ways with German club Erzgebirge Aue.
What happened?
Fabisch attracted interest from several South African clubs, with Durban rivals AmaZulu also monitoring his situation. There was also speculation that Soweto giants Kaizer Chiefs could make a move for the 24-year-old midfielder. However, reports indicate that Amakhosi were not actively pursuing a deal, leaving Golden Arrows in pole position.
Why it matters for Lamontville Golden Arrows FC
A move to Arrows would see Fabisch join the South African top flight after spending his entire professional career playing in Germany. Golden Arrows will be hoping the addition of the Warriors midfielder strengthens their squad ahead of the new season.
What comes next?
If completed, the transfer will provide Fabisch with an opportunity to revive his club career in a new environment while continuing to represent Zimbabwe at international level. The midfielder reportedly caught the attention of South African clubs after featuring for Zimbabwe at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, where his performances helped boost his profile in the region.
