Simba SC boss Fadlu Davids has outlined what new signing Rushine De Reuck brings to the Tanzanian side following his move from Mamelodi Sundowns.
Simba recently secured the services of De Reuck, who joined after a spell at Sundowns that began in 2020.
The South African defender is reported to have signed a two-year contract, with an option to extend for a further season.

Currently in pre-season camp with his new club, De Reuck's manager Davids has spoken about what the 29-year-old will offer the team.
Speaking in a video interview recently published by Simba on YouTube, Davids explained: "Rushine De Reuck comes in as a central defender with huge experience in the Champions League. He has huge quality in terms of one versus one and aerially.
"On the ball, his build-up is quite good of course, coming from a team like Mamelodi Sundowns who build from the back.
"They have a slightly different build-up to ours, they are a bit more slow and methodical, whereas we are a bit more faster and quicker.
"So that adaptation has to happen but he's a top defender that will give us the leadership and Champions League experience that is required to achieve at this level."
Elsewhere, reports in Tanzania suggest that Neo Maema could be the next player to join Simba from Sundowns after the ongoing 2024 African Nations Championship.
