HARARE – The 2024 Soccer Star of the Year finalists include five players from champions Simba Bhora – a record.
The 11 finalists, picked by coaches, captains and sports journalists, were revealed on Wednesday.
The overall winner and two runners-up will be unveiled on December 6.
Simba Bhora defenders Isheanesu Mauchi, Blessing Moyo and Webster Tafa all made the list, joined by teammates Walter Musona and Tymon Machope.
Golden Boot winner Lynoth Chikuhwa of Highlanders is also on the list.
Despite a season to forget for CAPS United who finished eighth, they weighed in with two players – Godknows Murwira and midfielder Kingsley Mureremba.
Yadah’s Khama Billiat, Emmanuel Jalai of Dynamos and Chicken Inn goalkeeper Donovan Bernard complete the 11.
After finding the net 17 times for Highlanders in the league, Chikuhwa will feel he has done enough to take the top prize but Khama Billiat who scored 13 times and Walter Musona whose 10 goals helped Simba Bhora win the premiership will also be part of the discussion.
