Kaizer Chiefs are set to return to Europe for their pre-season, presumably around July.

The Soweto giants recently concluded their 2024/25 Betway Premiership, where they finished ninth. Although they had another disappointing season, they still ended up claiming the Nedbank Cup, which was somewhat of a relief, having gone 10 years without silverware.

According to Soccer Laduma, Kaizer Chiefs technical team recommends the team to head to Europe for pre-season training.

“Yes, apparently the technical team has recommended that they have the pre-season camp in Europe again,” a source told the publication.

“No. Not at the moment. I can’t say which country as they are looking at the availability of training fields, accommodation as well as other important logistics. But it’s believed that they will be going to Europe for a pre-season camp”.�

Kaizer Chiefs are already thinking of pre-season

Another insider said Kaizer Chiefswere looking at having pre-season tournaments as soon as they arrive from Europe.

“Of course those pre-season tournaments will still he held at the start of next season. It’s just that we are not yet sure whether it will be the Toyota Cup or other tournaments but the team is working with sponsors in that regard. Apparently, when the marketing department and the sponsors finish the logistics then we will know which pre-season tournaments will be played this time around,” the second source told Soccer Laduma.

Kaizer Chiefs had their pre-season training in Turkey last year, where they played several friendly matches. It was also Nasreddine Nabi’s first time meeting with his team, having joined the Glamour Boys in July 2024.
