Veteran midfielder Teko Modise has signed for Cape Town City following his departure from Mamelodi Sundowns.

Due to lack of game time, the 34-year-old decided to leave the Brazilians after six years of service.

"Cape Town City is delighted to announce the signing of Teko Modise! The midfielder adds further quality and depth to the squad as we prepare to compete both domestically and in the Caf Confederation Cup," the club announced on their social media page.

"Teko is determined to bring further success to the club, and become part of the story of the boys in Blue andGold. CTCFC family, join us in welcoming Teko to his new home in the City of Cape Town!"

The former Orlando Pirates and Bafana Bafana skipper will link up with the newly appointed coach Benni McCarthy, whom he played with in the national team.

The decorated superstar who recently won the Caf Champions and Super Cup with his former team, will look to add more silverware with City after they clinched the Telkom Knockout title in their maiden season.
