A Career That Took Off At Naturena Musona joined Kaizer Chiefs from Zimbabwe’s Aces Youth Soccer Academy in 2009 and quickly established himself as one of the Premier Soccer League’s most dangerous attackers. Nicknamed the “ Smiling Assassin” by supporters, he enjoyed two spells at the club, scoring 40 goals and providing 13 assists in 88 appearances. His impressive performances earned him a move to Germany with TSG Hoffenheim before spells in Belgium with KV Oostende and Anderlecht. He later played in Saudi Arabia before returning home to sign for Scottland FC.
