Darren Keet, 31, will go a long way to filling the void left following the departure of Dutch goalkeeper Peter Leeuwenburgh who parted ways with the Mother City club at the end of last season in order to join FC Groningen in his homeland.
“Looking at my future plans, Cape Town was a good place to start, and obviously the opportunity arose,” Keet said.
“I want to a part of something big, I want to part of something extra special.
“Since I was young, one of the only things I’ve wanted to achieve was to be the best goalkeeper in South Africa. I’ve won all the trophies, I’ve had the experience of winning the PSL before, I definitely want more. I’m not coming here to settle for anything less…”
