Former champions FC Platinum have bolstered their squad with nine new signings, including ex-Highlanders midfielder Mckinnon Mushore and four foreign players, as they gear up for the 2026 season. Mushore, who spent last season on loan at Simba Bhora, joins the Platinum Miners as a free agent following the expiry of his contract with Highlanders on December 31. The midfielder reunites with coach Joel Luphahla, who recently switched from Simba Bhora to replace long-serving mentor Norman Mapeza at the helm .
Luphahla has wasted no time in preparation for pre-season training, securing the services of highly-rated midfielder Garikai Dematsika from relegated GreenFuel, highly sought-after former Yadah defender Takunda Vareta, midfielder David Mangezi, and promising talent Tadiwa Muchenje. The club has also ventured beyond borders, signing Namibian Mbakondja Tjahikika, Ghanaian Emmanuel Dogbey, Malawian defender Maxwell Paipi, and Cameroonian goalkeeper Manfred Ekoi.

To strengthen the technical team, Luphahla has brought in trusted lieutenants: Warren Mapanga as goalkeepers' coach, Dilloan Chivandire for strength and conditioning, and Ashley Ndebele as head performance analyst and set-piece specialist.
