Dženan Zajmović has explained why he decided to return to the country to join second-tier side Cape Town City. The highly rated Bosnian striker netted an impressive 11 goals for TS Galaxy last season, his maiden season in SA. The 31-year-old, who was once linked to Soweto giants Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs, has lauded City’s ambitions, aiming to help the Citizens return to the top-flight.
“I’m really excited and happy to be here and to join the journey the club is on. It’s clear that this is an ambitious environment and that’s exactly why I wanted to come,” Zajmović said. “I want to be successful and it feels like everyone here shares that same mindset…
The players, the owners, [and] the fans, we’re all aligned, and that’s what makes this place special.” Zajmović had a brief spell at Iranian side Zob Aham before returning to Mzansi. During his five-month stay in Iran, Zajmović played only six matches without finding the back of the net. Zajmović is not City’s only big signing of this transfer window thus far, as they have also bolstered their midfield with the tried and tested Miguel Timm from Sekhukhune United.
