Shonga is hoping to emulate his countrymen Perry Mutapa and Isaac Chansa at the Soweto giants.
Chansa played an important role as Bucs clinched the 2010/11 PSL title - scoring a crucial goal against Lamontville Golden Arrows in the last game of the season.
"I would like to emulate other Zambian players who have done well at the Club such as Perry Mutapa and Isaac Chansa," he concluded.
The promising forward will join up with his new teammates on Wednesday.
Bucs will take on Polokwane City in a PSL match on Saturday.
