Gome joins Platinum Stars
Namibian senior national team and former Bidvest Wits player Wangu Gome has joined South African Premier Soccer League (PSL) outfit Platinum Stars on a season's contract.
Gome joined Wits in the 2015/16 season, but was underutilised by the club during his spell with the South African giants.
He got his first taste of cup success in South Africa when Bidvest Wits powered to an emphatic 3-0 win over Mamelodi Sundowns in the MTN8 final last year.
The South African club however released the player at the end of last season after an injury-prone campaign.
The player last appeared for the national team during the 2017 Cosafa Cup played in South Africa.
Gome also missed out on the opportunity to play for the national team at the Africa Nations Championship because he was still searching for a club.
“I thank God for the opportunity. He brought me here for a reason and I have to work hard to play my part in the team,” Gome said.
