Motsepe Foundation Championship club Baroka FC is set to bolster their squad with the potential signing of former Cape Town Spurs goalkeeper Lincoln Vyver. Known for his impressive reflexes and strong presence between the posts, Vyver has emerged as a top target for the Limpopo-based outfit.
The 25-year-old goalkeeper, who previously played a key role for Spurs, has been a free agent following his departure from the Cape Town side earlier this year. His availability has sparked interest from several clubs, but Baroka appears to be leading the race for his signature.
Vyver’s performances in the National First Division, now rebranded as the Motsepe Foundation Championship, were marked by consistent displays of skill and composure. His ability to command the box, coupled with his shot-stopping prowess, has made him one of the most sought-after free agents in the South African football market.
Baroka FC, who have struggled with inconsistency in their goalkeeping department, are reportedly keen to bring in Vyver to solidify their defense. With aspirations to return to the top flight after their relegation from the Premier Soccer League (PSL) in 2022, Baroka is looking to build a squad capable of competing at the highest level.
While no formal announcement has been made, sources close to the deal suggest that talks are at an advanced stage. Should Vyver join Baroka FC, he could prove to be a valuable asset as they push for promotion back to the PSL
