Kaizer Chiefs are expected to say goodbye to a few players this month. Christian Saile could be the first to leave Amakhosi.
CHIPPA UNITED TO SIGN KAIZER CHIEFS ATTACKER
After just one start in the Betway Premiership this season, Congolese forward Saile is reportedly on his way out of Amakhosi to Gqeberha to join Chippa on loan. “SABC Sport has established that Kaizer Chiefs and Chippa United are close to agreeing a deal for striker Christian Saile,” said Mazola Molefe.
“The Glamour Boys are desperate to free up a foreign spot in anticipation of signing an international forward and this potential move would be ideal for the club to bring in a replacement almost immediately. Saile joined Chiefs exactly two years ago from Zambian outfit Nchana Rangers with the hope that he could replicate the form that made him a household name at his former club and on the continent.
“But after a total 49 matches in all competitions, the DR Congo striker has managed only six goals and has featured more as a wide player.”
FIACRE NTWARI LEAVING KAIZER CHIEFS?
Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly planning to make a quick decision that was not expected five months ago.
The 24-year-old Burundian goalkeeper joined Amakhosi in August 2024 from TS Galaxy. He briefly owned the gloves before a few errors and an injury on international duty cost him his number-one spot at Kaizer Chiefs in November 2024. According to Soccer Laduma, the Soweto Giants are considering a loan deal to recruit Zambia’s Toaster Nsabata.
“The club has identified that the department is a bit shaky and that’s why they have enquired about Zambia national team goalkeeper Toaster Nsabata,” the report said. “But to bring him in they need to at least release one or loan one goalkeeper and they are considering loaning out Ntwari at the moment. It’s not clear whether it would in January or at the end of the season. For now, the main focus is one goalkeeper at a time, and are going at the moment,” the report added.
