World football is replete with prodigious talents and Tawanda Maswanhise, born on the 20th of November, 2002 in Zimbabwe, is certainly featured amongst this stellar group. One of Motherwell's reputable forwards, Maswanhise plays predominantly as a left winger and is known for his deftness on the pitch. Not a physically imposing figure, he stands at 5ft 8in (1.75m) tall, and carries a weight of 10st 12lb (69kg) which enables him to nimbly navigate through defence lines. The number 18 jersey is what he is seen sporting during matches.
Maswanhise's current market value, according to Transfermarkt, sits around £384k, a testament to his growing importance in the football sphere. The Zimbabwean forward commenced his journey in professional football with Leicester City, joining the Championship team in England, in July 2019.
His stint in the Championship was followed by a transfer to Motherwell, a team in the Premiership in Scotland, in August 2024. Upon his arrival in Scotland, his remarkable abilities were immediately put to the test, and Maswanhise did not disappoint. During his debut season in 2024 - 2025 with Motherwell, the forward made 30 first team appearances and netted six goals in league matches.
His current season in 2025 - 2026 with Motherwell demonstrate a continued upward trajectory, with seven first team appearances and three goals in league matches already under his belt. Furthermore, Maswanhise represented Motherwell in the League Cup in 2025 - 2026, finding the back of the net four times in five starts and one appearance as a substitute. He was also seen in action during the Scottish Cup in 2024 - 2025 for Motherwell, marking one start. His impressive performances and constant growth mark him as one to watch in the days to come.
