Yanga SC has confirmed it will not sell star midfielder Clement Mzize this season, underlining the player’s key role in the club’s ambitions.
Speaking at the club’s General Assembly today at The Super Dome in Masaki, Dar es Salaam, Yanga SC President Hersi Said said the club has received several offers for Mzize, including one worth $2 million, but turned them all down.
“Mzize is one of our most valuable players. We are committed to keeping him this season to secure success on the pitch,” Said said.
He added that the club may consider a transfer next season if it serves the interests of both Mzize and Yanga.
Beyond retaining Mzize, Yanga SC is investing in young talent aged 17–20. Said said the goal is to develop players who can strengthen the senior team and eventually attract international opportunities.
“With this approach, Yanga aims to maintain its competitive edge locally while producing players capable of excelling abroad,” he said.
The club’s strategy signals its determination to balance immediate success with long-term growth, ensuring Yanga remains a powerhouse in Tanzanian football.
