Why it matters for SuperSport United FC

What comes next?
The 2026-2027 season is set to be an exciting one for African Stars FC, who will be competing in the CAF Champions League. Lyema Dopolo will be looking to make a name for himself in the competition, and his experience and leadership will be crucial for the team's success.
Lyema Dopolo spent eight years at SuperSport United FC after rising through the youth ranks. He eventually signed for FC Ongos last season and did enough to prove his quality, thereby earning the African Stars FC transfer.
