Stellenbosch FC have strengthened their squad ahead of the 2026/27 season with the signing of experienced midfielder George Matlou on a free transfer.
The 28-year-old joins Stellies after leaving Kaizer Chiefs, where he made 46 appearances and helped the Soweto giants lift the Nedbank Cup. He has signed a long-term contract with the Cape Winelands club.
Before his spell at Naturena, Matlou featured for Moroka Swallows and also gained overseas experience with Portuguese outfit Sanjoanense.
Stellenbosch FC CEO Rob Benadie welcomed the midfielder’s arrival, saying the club believes Matlou will add quality and experience to the squad.
“George is a player we believe can add real value to our squad through his experience, technical ability, and understanding of the game,” said Benadie.
“His pedigree speaks for itself, and we are naturally pleased that he has chosen to continue his career with Stellenbosch FC. We believe he can play an important role in helping us achieve our objectives this season.”
