Written by Staff Reporter on July 14, 2026
Highlanders FC have confirmed the departure of left-back Archford Faira, who has joined Herentals College FC on loan for the remainder of the 2026 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League season.
The move is expected to provide the promising defender with increased first-team opportunities as he seeks regular competitive football during the second half of the campaign.
In a statement, Highlanders expressed confidence that Faira will benefit from the experience at Herentals, saying the loan spell will aid his development and allow him to gain valuable match exposure before returning to the Bulawayo giants at the end of the season.
Faira becomes the first player to leave Bosso during the mid-season transfer window, marking the club’s first confirmed transfer movement ahead of a crucial run of league fixtures.
His arrival is set to bolster Herentals’ defensive ranks, with the Students looking to strengthen their squad and improve their standing in the Premier Soccer League as the race for points intensifies.
The loan move presents an important opportunity for Faira to further develop his game while contributing to Herentals’ ambitions for a strong finish to the 2026 season.
