Kaizer Chiefs could be on the verge of securing a reliable frontman after Bosnian striker Dženan Zajmović confirmed his departure from TS Galaxy. The experienced forward announced his exit through a heartfelt Instagram post, officially ending his time with the Rockets and sparking transfer speculation linking him to Naturena.

“Unfortunately, my chapter at TS Galaxy has come to an end. I would like to thank the chairman, the head coach, the club director, the whole staff and last but not least my AMAZING TEAMMATES. It truly felt like being part of a family,” Zajmović posted, highlighting the emotional bond he formed at the club.

Kaizer Chiefs in search of firepower

Chiefs’ ongoing struggle for consistency in front of goal makes Zajmović a tempting option. During the 2024/2025 campaign, he scored 11 goals across all competitions, including seven in the Betway Premiership, three in the Nedbank Cup and one in the Carling Knockout. The 30-year-old also chipped in with two assists in 28 appearances, underlining his contribution beyond just goals.

Kaizer Chiefs need a striker who can deliver under pressure and link up well in attack, Zajmović ticks those boxes.

Galaxy turmoil could open the door for Chiefs

His exit comes at a chaotic time for TS Galaxy, who are grappling with their fourth FIFA-imposed transfer ban in under a year. With the club unable to strengthen their squad, Zajmović’s departure may present a golden opportunity for Kaizer Chiefs to pounce.

With Edson Castillo reportedly on his way out of Naturena, a foreign player slot could soon become available. Clearing the path for the Bosnian hitman’s potential arrival.

Zajmović brings more than goals

Zajmović isn’t just a proven finisher, he brings character and leadership, qualities that would resonate in the Chiefs dressing room. His farewell message speaks volumes about his professionalism and the value he places on team unity.

If Kaizer Chiefs want to challenge for silverware next season, securing a striker like Zajmović could prove a masterstroke.
