Background
Takesure was born on the 30th of September 1982.[1]
Career
Chinyama used play for Hwange Football Club between 2003 and 2005 before joining league champions, Monomotapa Football Club . He then moved to Poland where he played for Groclin Grodzisk and Legia Warszawa Football Club but it was at Legia Warszawa Football Club that he made a name for himself. He was very prominent in the Polish league for his goal scoring exploits[2] After a successful stint in Poland, Chinyama joined Dembare in 2011 and in a space of six months, he had done enough damage in the local league to attract the attention of South African outfit, Orlando Pirates. Unfortunately, he failed to reproduce his sparkling form at Dembare which saw him being offloaded by Pirates after just one season. He went on to join Platinum Stars in the South African League and was also released after he failed to impress. Having gone for a while without a club, Chinyama was acquired by Dynamos Football Club during the 2015 mid season to compliment the defending champions' strike force.[3] Upon making his Dembare return, Chinyama scored the goal that earned Dembare a point in 1 - 1 draw with perennial rivals, Highlanders Football Club.
On 29 June 2017 he was unveiled by FC Platinum after returning to Zimbabwe following a stint at Polish Division 3 club Plotorowk L.Z.K.S where he scored 26 goals.[4]
