Karim Kimvuidi (born 13 March 2002) is a Congolese footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for Orlando Pirates in the South African Premier Division.
He was named in DR Congo's squad for the 2020 African Nations Championship, played in 2021, and featured in one game.[1]
After several years in Daring Club Motema Pembe, he went to South African club Maritzburg United in 2022.[1][2] Kimvuidi was an outstanding player for Maritzburg United, but the club was relegated from the 2022-23 South African Premier Division. As such, the club had several offers for their best players,[3] and Kimvuidi transferred to Orlando Pirates in July 2023.[4] He made his Bucs debut in September 2023 against Mamelodi Sundowns.[5] He played regularly, but did not establish himself as a starter yet.[6][7][8]
