Celtic Football Club are proud to officially announce the signing of Kurt
Lentjies for the 2012/13 season.
The
27-year-old midfielder, who joins Phunya Sele Sele from Maritzburg United, has
penned a two-year contract with Celtic that has an option to renew for another
year.
Clinton
Larsen, Celtic head coach, says he is happy about the arrival of Lentjies at
Siwelele.
“I’ve
always rated Kurt very highly. I’ve been following his progress very closely
since he was playing for FC Fortune as a teenager, and then for Ikapa Sporting
FC. Actually, I played against him in the National First Division when he was a
kid and I was finishing off my playing days,” Larsen explains.
“I’ve
always admired the way he played, even at Maritzburg United FC. So I jumped at
the opportunity to sign him when he became available. He is a quality addition
to our squad and I think he is going to add value.” he adds.
