Cape Town City have announced that Austrian midfielder Roland Putsche has signed a contract extension with the Citizens.

The 27-year-old joined the Citizens from Austrian Bundesliga side Wolfsberger AC in July 2016 after signing a three-year deal.

He has since put pen to paper on a further two-years, which will see his deal run until the end of the 2020-21 season.

Putsche has made 78 appearances for City in his two and a half-season stay, scoring seven goals and assisting a further four in the process, while also helping City to the Telkom Knockout and MTN8 titles.

Over the course of his career, Putsche has scored 25 goals and assisted seven from 297 appearances in all competitions while playing for the likes of SK Austria Karnten, Wolfsberger AC and Cape Town City.
