DYNAMOS Football Club continued honouring its former players with three club legends receiving the official LOOKS replica jerseys at a brief function at Betta Ball Sports Shop in Harare this morning.

The country’s biggest and most successful club recently signed a three-year kit sponsorship deal with a UK-based sports equipment and apparel manufacturer, On The Ball LOOKS.
The partnership will see the England-based sportswear manufacturer supplying DeMbare with playing kits, training kits, travelling gear, club replicas and merchandise.
The replica jerseys have since been delivered to the market and are selling at US$35 each from Betta Ball Sports Shop in Harare as well as iSport Sports Shop in Bulawayo.
Fans all over the world can purchase their replicas online on www.otblooks.com.
Stanley Chirambaradare (pictured second from right), better known as Samora, a renowned left-back famous for his overlapping runs and booming shots between 1986 and 1991 was the first to be presented with a replica jersey today.
Next to be presented with a club replica jersey was former midfield enforcer and dead ball specialist Elvis Chuchu Chiweshe (pictured second from left).
Chuchu joined Dynamos in 1984 from the now defunct Eagles and retired from playing football in 1995. As a player he won several league titles with Dynamos and as a coach he led the Glamour Boys to the mini league of the CAF Champions League in 2010.
Last to receive his replica was wing wizard and star of the famed Kidznet cast Samson Choruwa (pictured centre).
Choruwa was arguably the most talented player of his generation, he signed a contract with Dynamos from Glen View High 2.
He would later be sent to Churchill from where he easily graduated into the Dynamos team. Unfortunately, a nasty injury in 2002 cut short his blossoming career.
The three expressed their appreciation to the Dynamos Executive for remembering them with these tokens even now when their playing careers are over.
Already, Dynamos has presented replica jerseys to other former players Desmond Maringwa, Thomas Sweswe, Murape Murape, Norman Maroto and Stanley Marunza.
Arguably Dembare’s most popular former player Moses Chunga’s jersey is ready for handover from Betta Ball Sports Shop and will be presented to him anytime he shows up.
