Tholo Thabang Matuludi (born 14 January 1999) is a South African soccer player who plays as a right back for Polokwane City in the Premier Soccer League.
Playing for Polokwane City in the National First Division, the team won promotion to the 2023-24 South African Premier Division where Matuludi made his first-tier debut.[1][2] By the 2024 winter transfer window, Matuludi had stood out as a key player for Polokwane City. Media reported interest in the player, allegedly from Stellenbosch FC and Cape Town City.[3] No move happened, but in the summer window, Orlando Pirates was added to the discussion.[4][5]
He was called up for South Africa for the 2024 COSAFA Cup,[6] where he made his international debut against Mozambique.[2] He played every minute of the competition until South Africa was knocked out.[4]
