Kaizer Chiefs have been expected to release a few players in January.

SIBONGISENI MTHETHWA GONE?

The 30-year-old midfielder from Escourt, KwaZulu Natal, has not made any impression on coach Nasreddine Nabi. Without a single appearance on the bench this season, a source has told the Citizen that Kaizer Chiefs have released the former Stellenbosch FC star.

“A decision has been made to cut ties with Mthethwa, but because the club paid a lot of money to Stellenbosch when they signed him last year, they won’t release him for free,” an insider told the Citizen.

“They will put him on the transfer list and hopefully, they will get a buyer for him.

“He’s a quality player so I’m sure he won’t be short of suitors, but I don’t think Chiefs will get back the amount they spent on him when they bought him from Stellies. Remember, he was a Bafana player then and didn’t come cheap,” the source added on the Amakhosi jersey number 5.
