Kaizer Chiefs may have a new midfield star from the continent next season.

KAIZER CHIEFS TO SIGN NIGERIAN MIDFIELDER?

Looking at Amakhosi’s current midfield, coach Nasreddine Nabi does not have enough options to compete with the likes of Yusuf Maart and Thabo Cele.

According to Soccer Laduma, the 25-year-old US Monastir midfielder Kingsley Michael is on the radar of the Kaizer Chiefs.

“He is currently playing in Tunisia and there are scouts who have been monitoring him there and he has been doing very well,” a source told the outlet on Kaizer Chiefs’ moves.

“That’s why he is back on Chiefs’ radar. They haven’t finalised the shopping list for next season as they are still looking at the players which they can afford and get. Kingsley Michael is one of those they are considering.

Meanwhile, the same publication has claimed that Kaizer Chiefs have increased the club’s spending budget this coming winter.

“You know the budget went up? Yes, it’s because they want to get almost all their targets this season and to do that they are willing to pay this time around.

“So you know Kingsley is playing in Tunisia and they will need good money to bring him to Naturena, and they are believed to be working on doing just that,” an additional insider said.
