Club career
Ntuli began his career in the Vodacom League with Sobantu Shooting Stars before joining the Golden Arrows reserve team.[2] He made his debut for Arrows in January 2012.[2] He went on to join Mamelodi Sundowns in 2014,[3] however, he battled to break into the team and a six months he later joined AmaZulu on loan.[4] From 2015 to 2018, Ntuli was on loan at Platinum Stars.[5][6][7]
In July 2018, Ntuli went on trial with Djurgårdens IF.[8] His move to Europe did not materialize, this due to Ntuli and Djurgardens not being able to agree on the financials of his deal.[9] In August 2018 it was confirmed that Ntuli had joined AmaZulu on loan,[10] with his deal becoming permanent after being part of a swap deal which saw him stay onboard with AmaZulu and Emiliano Tade go the other way and join Sundowns.[11]
