Nkanyiso Zungu (born 23 January 1996) is a South African professional soccer player who plays as a forward for Pretoria Callies.[1][2]
In 2022 he was embroiled in a police investigation and suspended from soccer.[3] In 2022–23 he was loaned out to Richards Bay, but the club chose to terminate his loan following disciplinary issues.[4][5] He was released in 2023,[6] and subsequently trained with Royal AM—who could not sign him due to a transfer ban—and AmaZulu.[7] He was only able to find a new club in the second tier, joining Platinum City Rovers in March 2024. After their relegation he went on to Pretoria Callies.[8]
