Kaizer Chiefs has not been a success for Christian Saile so far. Is the left-footed forward saying goodbye soon?
KAIZER CHIEFS TO RELEASE CHRISTIAN SAILE
Coach Nasreddine Nabi has shown his trusted wingers such as Wandile Duba, Gastin Sirino, Pule Mmodi and Mfundo Vilakazi. With just seven goals in 54 appearances, the 25-year-old Saile will be deemed surplus to requirements by coach Nasreddine Nabi and his Amakhosi technical team.
“They have tried to give him a chance and be patient with him, but they are not getting the returns they expected from him,” a source told Soccer Laduma.
“Yes, it’s true there have been clubs who have shown interest in him but things are not coming together.
“And the team is looking to get another striker and a winger, the two positions which Saile can play. The plan is now to release him and create that space for players to come in.
A second source said, “They have looked at all angles, including how much the club is spending already. If they are to bring in more players while there are players who are not really playing or performing, it will balloon the salary bill, and they are avoiding that.
“So letting Saile go is one way of cutting on the costs at the club hence even the loan deal could be out but releasing him seems to be the right solution.”
