Siwelele Football Club confirms that we are in advanced discussions with Belgian First Division B side K. Beerschot V.A. regarding the potential transfer of our attacker Siviwe Magididigi.
K. Beerschot first approached us late last year, but their offer at the time did not reflect the value that Magididigi has brought to our club, nor the impact we believed he still had to make. However, through ongoing conversations, it became clear that the player was eager to test himself internationally and embrace a new chapter abroad.
We have always believed in matching ambition with opportunity. When Beerschot significantly improved their offer, more than doubling their initial one, the deal became acceptable and aligned with the best interests of Siwelele FC.
While the transfer is not yet final, we are now in the process of concluding negotiations.
We fully appreciate the fans Magididigi has earned among the Siwelele faithful, and we acknowledge the emotional connection many feel. Regardless of the outcome, he will forever be part of our story. He has been a foundational player in our maiden campaign and a young man who helped set our standards both on the field and in the dressing room.
At only 20 years old, Magididigi’s potential is enormous. We have no doubt that Belgian defenders will soon be experiencing exactly the kind of trouble he caused across the PSL. We are proud of him, we are grateful to him, and we look forward to watching his journey unfold.
If this move is concluded, he will carry Siwelele’s spirit with him, and he will always
