TS Galaxy star defender Samukelo Kabini has officially sealed his R15-million move to Molde FK of Norway.

Kabini was unveiled by Molde FK on Thursday, and this was soon after committing to a three-year deal with them.

He left South Africa on this week to complete his medical before putting pen to paper with Molde FK.

With the transfer window in Norway slamming shut on 27 March, Kabini’s move was always expected to be finalised as soon as he passed his medical tests.

Molde FK got their season underway on 15 March when they lost 4-0 to Kristiansund in the Europa Conference League.

Now, Kabini’s arrival means he would be expected to bring about stability in that leaky Molde FK defence.

The 21-year-old defender had been an important member for TS Galaxy this season both in defence and in attack.

And despite being a centre-back, Kabini had already bagged three goals in 19 league matches prior to his departure.

Speaking to Molde FK’s media team, the left-footed defender expressed delight at joining the club.

“I am very happy to be here in Molde. It has been an exciting few days, and I am looking forward to getting started,” said Kabini.

“I have heard a lot of good things about the club and have seen how Molde performs both in Norway and in Europe. It seems like a fantastic place to develop as a player.

“I like to play with intensity and use my physicality in the duel game. I have played both as a left-back and a centre-back, and I always give everything for the team,” he concluded.
