New Stellenbosch FC signing Terrence Mashego says he is determined to make an immediate impact and help the club compete for honours during the 2026-27 season.

The 28-year-old joins the Maroons on a season long loan from Mamelodi Sundowns.

He arrives at the club after a successful loan spell at Durban City FC, where he helped them secure the Nedbank Cup trophy last season.

Mashego says he is eager to embrace a fresh challenge with the Cape Winelands outfit.

“I am delighted to have the opportunity to play for Stellenbosch FC,” Mashego told his club’s official website.

“It’s a professional Club, with a great culture, and has, over the years, produced a lot of good players.

“We have good players here now too, a mix of talented youngsters and experienced players, so we have a good squad. I believe we have a team that can compete, and that’s what we’re going to do this season.

“I’m starting to think that I belong on the coast because I always do well when I’m in the coastal areas.

“I had a great time playing in Cape Town, and the people in the Western Cape love football, so I want to pick up where I left off, play regularly, and help the team.

“I can‎’t wait to get on the pitch, fight for the badge and my teammates, and play in front of our fans. Hopefully, I can make them happy.”
