Dynamos FC have announced that they will temporarily retire jersey number 2 for the 2026 season in honor of their outgoing captain, Emmanuel Jalai.
The decision comes as the Glamour Boys bid farewell to Jalai, who is leaving the team, ending his illustrious six-year tenure at DeMbare.
Jalai, who is already in Durban, South Africa, is reportedly set to join Premiership side Durban City.
Having made over 180 appearances for Dynamos and held the position of captain with distinction, Jalai leaves as one of the most significant players in the team’s 63-year history.

Thank you Emmanuel Jalai. Ma’a as-salamah!
Dynamos Football Club would like to wholeheartedly thank our outgoing Captain, Emmanuel Jalai, as he embarks on his next chapter.
Both Dynamos FC and Jalai had intended to conclude a new deal ahead of the 2026 season.
However, this could not materialise following the emergence of interest from a foreign club.
As a result, the number 2 will not be part of the Glamour Boys’ squad for the upcoming 2026 season.
Over our 63-year history, many outstanding players have proudly worn the blue and white of DeMbare.
Emmanuel ranks among the very best of them and stands as one of the true icons of the domestic game.
It has always been Emmanuel’s professional ambition to secure a move to South Africa or Europe.
In recognition of his immense contribution to the club over six seasons, Dynamos FC could not stand in his way.
His move speaks volumes about his dedication, discipline, and work ethic, while also reflecting the strength of the Dynamos brand-one that helped propel him into a Warriors international and a household name.
We are fully confident that Emmanuel will continue to excel at his new club and that even greater opportunities lie ahead for him.
Lastly, Dynamos Football Club expresses its sincere gratitude to Jalai for his sacrifices and commitment, having represented the club in over 180 matches.
He will always remain part of the Dynamos family, and we will continue to support and celebrate his success.
Go well. lla al-liqã’!
