Zimbabwean young winger Cobert Junior Chimedza has officially completed a transfer to Croatian club NK Međimurje Čakovec, marking a fresh chapter in the promising career of the 21-year-old Warriors prospect.
Chimedza, who previously made waves as a historic signing for Portuguese Primeira Liga side Gil Vicente (where he also spent time on loan with AC Marinhense), heads to Croatia looking for regular first-team developmental minutes and a platform to showcase his dynamic attacking talents.

Born in Harare, Chimedza’s footballing journey began in England, where he cut his teeth in the youth ranks of MK Dons (2019–2024) after being discovered during a local social football match.
His rapid development caught the eye of scouts across Europe, leading to his landmark move to Portugal’s top flight with Gil Vicente. Now, the transition to Croatian football represents the next step for the versatile left-winger, who is equally comfortable operating on the right flank or as an attacking midfielder.
Regarded as one of the rising talents of his generation for Zimbabwe, Chimedza has long been on the radar of national team watchers. With his permanent switch to NK Međimurje Čakovec, consistency and regular senior competitive action in Europe will bolster his ambitions of making a definitive breakthrough into the senior Zimbabwe Warriors squad.
