Kaizer Chiefs are scouring Africa for the best talent. However, their marquee target might have passed his sell-by date.
Salum sizzled in 2023-2024
Feisal Salum chipped in with an impressive 19 goals for Azam FC during the 2023-2024 campaign. That followed a glittering spell with Young Africans, where the talented playmaker collected consecutive trebles. A proven winner, Salum has 41 caps and four goals for his nation.
Has Salum struggled in 2024-2025?
The Zanzibar-born star hasn’t replicated last season’s form for Azam FC this time around. His last goal for the club came back in December 2024, and his side sits third in the Tanzanian Premier League, a massive 16 points adrift of leaders Young Africans.
Salum is tempted by the chance to work with Nabi at Kaizer Chiefs
According to Goal, Feisal Salum is tempted by a move to link up with Nasreddine Nabi at Kaizer Chiefs. The 27-year-old Tanzanian midfield schemer worked alongside the Tunisian tactician at Young Africans.
Although the Buccaneers are blessed with options at the sharp end with Tshegofatso Mabasa, Evidence Makgopa and Boitumelo Radiopane, they might be looking at a different style of number 9. Fiston Mayele is a popular name in the media, but will they go for a guy on the wrong side of 30, especially with a rumoured price tag of R12 million?
What did Makgopa and Mabasa do to offend Hugo Broos?
Would Salum be a risky transfer for Kaizer Chiefs?
