Bethuel Muzeu (born 2 February 2000), also known as Muzeu Muzeu, is a Namibian footballer who plays for National First Division club Black Leopards and the Namibia national team.
Muzeu represented his native Omaheke Region in the 2018 Namibian Newspaper Cup.[1] By the 2021 Namibia Premier Football League season, he joined Tura Magic.[2] As a member of Kasaona FA he was the top scorer of the 2022 Ramblers-Bank Windhoek U21 tournament staged at Ramblers Stadium in Windhoek. The team went on to win the inaugural tournament.[3][4]
In July 2022 Muzeu joined Black Leopards F.C. of the South African National First Division after impressing at the 2022 COSAFA Cup. The contract was for one season with an option for an additional season if the club earns promotion to the South African Premier Division.[5] After playing in pre-season matches with the club, head coach Joel Masutha compared Muzeu to fellow-Namibian in South Africa Peter Shalulile.[6]
During the 2023–24 National First Division season, Muzeu finished tied for first in the league scoring race with seventeen goals. He shared the Golden Boot award with Prince Nxumalo of JDR Stars who also scored seventeen.[7] Following the season, Black Leopards began shopping the striker to clubs in higher divisions for a reported transfer fee of R15 million. The club reportedly rejected an offer of R8 million earlier that season.[8]
