Kaizer Chiefs will continue to heal their current woes when the January transfer window opens. Which PSL stars do they want?
Chiefs want four players with varying skills
According to SoccerLaduma, Amakhosi are closely following Puso Dithejane’s performance with TS Galaxy. The former academy product from Naturena has thrived in the number 10 role for Sead Ramovic’s side.
According to the same publication, Thato Khiba is also a wanted man. The 28-year-old TS Galaxy defender is a versatile operator and Orlando Pirates have registered an interest and are willing to loan players out in order to facilitate a deal in January. Carling Knockout holders Stellenbosch are also keen on the former Chiefs DDC player.
“For now, there are other clubs that have joined the race for his services. First, it was the Pirates who showed interest first, and then the Chiefs, followed by Stellenbosch FC, have also inquired about him,” a source told SoccerLaduma.
The South African Pirlo is on Chiefs’ radar
The South African’s to Siseko Gwegwe reports on Chiefs’ desire to land Stellies midfielder Sihle Nduli’s signature. Apparently he’s got a bit of Andrea Pirlo in him. Meanwhile, the club’s pursuit of Oswin Appollis has been a terribly-kept secret.
Next five fixtures for Chiefs
Amakhosi have a quintet of league matches remaining to close out what’s been an underwhelming 2024. After a strong start to the 2024-2024 campaign, Nabi’s men dropped valuable points in recent league encounters, losing 1-0 to SuperSport and only managing a 2-2 draw with new boys Magesi. That’s before they got unceremoniously dumped out of the Carling Knockout by Sundowns in a demoralising 4-0 defeat.
