Former Kaizer Chiefs striker Caleb Bimenyimana has found a new club, joining a team in Saudi Arabia. The move marks a fresh start for the Burundian international after he was released by the Soweto giants in 2023.
Bimenyimana joined Chiefs with high expectations but struggled with injuries and inconsistent form during his time at the club. While he scored some important goals, he was ultimately released as part of a squad overhaul.
The striker expressed optimism about his new opportunity, stating, “I am grateful for the opportunity to play in Saudi Arabia. This is a chance to prove myself again and contribute to my new team’s success.”
The Saudi Arabian league has become an attractive destination for players from around the world due to significant investment in football. While known for signing global superstars, the league also offers opportunities for African talents seeking a new challenge.
Football analysts believe the move could be beneficial for reviving Bimenyimana’s career, suggesting he has the quality to succeed in that environment.
The move is also expected to be positive for his international career, as he remains a key player for the Burundi national team. The increased competition and focus in Saudi Arabia should help him maintain fitness and form ahead of upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
