Maritzburg United have announced the signing of forward Jose Ali Meza from Mamelodi Sundowns on a two-year deal.

The Team of Choice attempted to acquire the Venezuelan ahead of last season with the striker even spending time on trial with Eric Tinkler’s men ahead of a potential loan move.

"Welcome, José Alí Meza Meza has signed a two-year deal with the Team of Choice," the club said in a brief statement on social media.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
