Today’s Kaizer Chiefs transfer news looks at moves for Thabiso Monyane and Paseka Mako. There’s also more on Feisal Salum.
Mako and Monyane have ended their stays at Pirates.
Meanwhile, Tanzanian playmaker Feisal Salum remains a target.
Kaizer Chiefs raid Orlando Pirates for Mako
Like a shortfin Mako shark, Paseka is quick, snappy, compact and aggressive. Mako made 26 appearances in the 2024-2025 season. 2020-2021 was arguably his finest campaign, with four assists in 20 league outings. Meanwhile, 34-year-old Deon Hotto faces an uncertain long-term future. Innocent Maela has left the club, so Pirates are looking a little short at left-back.

Salum flirts with Chiefs, but has his form fallen off a cliff?
27-year-old 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 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.
Will Chiefs make a big offer for Salum?
