Having joined the club from Dynamos at the start of the 2012-13 season, Zungu helped AmaTuks to a top eight finish in the club's debut campaign in the PSL. At the end of the season it was announced that Zungu would be joining Mamelodi Sundowns in a swap deal, with Buhle Mkhwanazi and Siyabonga Ngubane joining University of Pretoria.

On 20 January 2016, Zungu's agent Steve Kapeluschnik confirmed that he would be joining Portuguese side Vitória de Guimarães upon the expiration of his contract at the end of the season. 11 days after the announcement Zungu suffered a hairline fracture of the shin in a 3-2 win over Maritzburg United, ruling him out for up to twelve weeks. Despite missing most of the second half of the season, Zungu had the perfect send off from Sundowns with the club lifting the PSL title in May.
