To show just how eagerly Simba SC fans are awaiting the unveiling of midfielder Feisal Salum 'Fei Toto', the club posted an image yesterday on its social media pages featuring jersey number 6 alongside six letters β a subtle but powerful teaser.
For several hours, the post dominated social media, raising hopes among Wanasimba (Simba fans) that their long wait may soon be over and that they could finally see their most-wanted player donning the red jersey next season.
It is no secret that Simba has fought hard during this transfer window to sign the Azam FC midfielder, Fei Toto.
Personal terms between the player and the club were reportedly agreed upon a while ago, with only club-to-club negotiations pending.
Simbaβs cryptic post strongly suggests that the "Zanzibar finest" is just a matter of time away from joining Msimbazi.
However, his official unveiling might not happen immediately. On Tuesday, Simba is expected to make a major announcement β insiders hint that it could be the introduction of a new sponsor, possibly Betway.
Simba has yet to announce any new signings officially, and in typical fashion, the club often reserves the big-name unveilings for the final moments.
