Zimbabwe International striker Matthew Rusike looks set to be on his way to Cape Town City as transfer deadline approaches.

Soccer Laduma reports that the former Kaizer Chiefs forward is close to signing for the Capetown City side after failing to secure a team in Sweden were he underwent trials at one of the clubs.

Rusike holds South African citizenship and will therefore not take up a foreign quota spot for the Citizens.

The player is a free agent after having had stints with Swedish club Helsingborgs well as a short cameo at Tunisian side Club Africain.
