Can Zuma revive faltering career?

Zuma has had a premature end to his time at Chiefs after five years with the club having joined from Bloemfontein Celtic.
“Topping the list is attacking midfielder Dumisani Zuma, whose numerous disciplinary issues have led to the club letting him go with a year still remaining on his contract.
“This follows his latest appearance in front of the club’s disciplinary committee, which resulted in his dismissal as recommended by an independent authority.
Since joining from Bloemfontein Celtic in 2017, he has been suspended a number of times, including twice in one season.
“He was also sent to rehab and counselling in the season that just ended,” said Chiefs in their departure note on Zuma.
The 27-year-old is favoured with a move back home to KwaZulu-Natal where AmaZulu will provide a different environment to Johannesburg where he has been befallen by troubles.
Usuthu are keen on Zuma as already hinted by AmaZulu boss Sandile Zungu with interest due to be swung to how his contract is structured considering all the discipline-related issues that arose at Chiefs where he was initially suspended in November for a case relating to driving under the influence of alcohol allegations.
TS Galaxy will also have a role to play considering the connection that they enjoy with Zuma’s handlers.
However, what will matter most is his need for game time to enable him to revive his career.
Last season he played only thrice and scored once with his relationship with the club already heading down the drain.
His first appearance for the 2021/22 season came almost a year since his last when Gavin Hunt was still in charge.
Under Hunt, he played 19 games, but none was a full shift.
Over the last three years, Zuma has played 90 minutes just once.
He played from start to finish in just 10 games from the 103 appearances that he made in Chiefs colours.
