Simbarashe "Simba" Nhivi Sithole (born January 10, 1991), commonly known as Simba Nhivi,[1] is a Zimbabwean footballer who plays as a striker for Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League side Dynamos and the Zimbabwe national team.[2][3]

Career[edit]

Club[edit]

Nhivi's career started in Zimbabwe with Shooting Stars, he left Shooting Stars in 2011 to join CAPS United. His move to CAPS Utd led to a transfer outside his homeland for the first time as he agreed to join Premier Soccer League side Mamelodi Sundowns.[4] However, Nhivi's spell with the Sundowns was unsuccessful as he left in 2012 without making a single appearance. His next move was back to Zimbabwe to join Dynamos, a year later he left for South Africa again but this time joined SuperSport United.[5] He made 5 league appearances for SuperSport Utd before rejoining Dynamos soon after.[6][7]

International[edit]

Nhivi has won 10 caps for the Zimbabwe national team and scored one goal for his nation, which came versus Mozambique in 2013.[7][8]
