Golden Arrows are assessing former Orlando Pirates striker Chiukepo Msowoya‚ who proved a flop with the Soweto giants but has been banging in the goals back in Malawi.
The 28-year-old joined Pirates in 2010 but scored just two goals in 18 months at the club and had a further barren six months with Platinum Stars before heading back to Malawi.
“We have been very thin in the striking department this season with only the youngster Sibusiso Sibeko‚ and then the more experienced Lerato Lamola and Mauricio Barrios‚" said Arrows coach Clinton Larsen.
