THE BIGGER PICTURE
After his contract expired, there was reported interest from the South African Premier Soccer League teams who were keen on signing the 34-year-old.
However, Scottland FC, who had just been promoted to the Zimbabwean top tier, convinced him to stay in his country.
The former Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns has apparently become the highest-paid player in Zimbabwe.
