Kaizer Chiefs confirmed the signing of Mamelodi Sundowns striker Leonardo Castro, in a social media post on Monday 18 December.
The Soweto giants tweeted a brief statement welcoming the Colombian to the club together with a picture of him and Chiefs chairman Kaizer Motaung.
“Welcome to the Amakhosi Family, Leonardo Castro #KCOneTeam #Amakhosi4Life,” Chiefs said.
This follows Sundowns’ initial announcement of the transfer on the weekend.
The 28-year-old was at the Brazilians for three seasons, scoring 15 goals in all competitions and also helping them to win the domestic league and the CAF Champions League.
Castro could potentially make his debut for Steve Komphela’s side in an away game at SuperSport United on January 6.
