Today, Saturday, January 24, 2026, at 7:00 pm, Simba will be in action in Tunisia, facing Esperance in their third-round group stage match of the CAF Champions League (CAFCL).
Good news for Simba supporters is that five players signed by the Msimbazi Reds during this transfer window have been cleared to feature in the match.
Attacking midfielder Clatous Chama, left-back Nickson Kibabage, central defender Osmail Toure, winger Libase Gueye, and goalkeeper Djibrilla Kassali are all available for selection in the encounter.
Chama and Kibabage previously represented Singida BS in the CAF Confederation Cup this season, but changes made to the CAF Competitions Committee regulations have scrapped the rule that barred a player who had featured for one club in CAF competitions in the same season from playing for another club.
There is no doubt that Simba head coach Steve Barker will make good use of these new additions to strengthen his squad as they prepare to take on Esperance.
