Feisal Salum has been a long-standing target for Kaizer Chiefs. With Tanzania landing in Mzansi, the player might have soft-launched his move.
Salum wearing Kaizer Chiefs colours?
Feisal Salum reposted a teammate’s story to his own account, where he appears to be lying in a bed wearing a tracksuit top with Chiefs’ colours. Make your own mind up about what this means. The player has 1.7 million followers on Instagram, so this is unlikely to quieten the rumours.
Salum’s ‘audition’ against Bafana Bafana
27-year-old Tanzania and Azam FC playmaker Feisal Salum will be key for his nation when they meet South Africa in a high-profile friendly on Friday night at 19:30. Stellenbosch star Fawaaz Basadien will skipper Hugo Broos’ side while Orlando Pirates man Nkosinathi Sibisi will wear the armband when Bafana meet Mozambique on Tuesday, 10 June.
Can Nabi coax the best out of Salum at Kaizer Chiefs?
Zanzibar-born midfielder Feisal Salum hasn’t replicated last season’s form for Azam this time around. His last league 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. Is he past his best? Can former manager Nabi coax something out of him?
Pre-season tour confirmed
As you’ll know by now, Chiefs are heading to the land of Dennis Bergkamp, Virgil van Dijk and Wesley Sneijder for their European pre-season tour adventure. The Glamour Boys jet out on 03 July and conclude the tour on 19 July. It should be a fun fortnight!
Will Salum be a Chiefs player next season?
