Brian Baloyi says that one of Orlando Pirates’ fringe players is better than anybody in his position at Kaizer Chiefs.
Baloyi urges Kaizer Chiefs to sign Lepasa
Former Bafana and Chiefs stopper Brian Baloyi says Amakhosi should be looking closely at the possibility of signing Zakhele Lepasa from Orlando Pirates.
“There’s a certain player at Orlando Pirates who is not playing,” Baloyi told Metro FM as quoted by IDiski Times in reference to Zakhele Lepasa.
“Tell who is better than him at Kaizer Chiefs. He is a Bafana player, when he plays he’s in Broos’ squad. Tell me who is better at Chiefs than him right now, as a striker.”
Long-standing target, 30-year-old Congolese striker Fiston Mayele from Pyramids FC, remains a target for the club.
“After the TS Galaxy game, there was the usual post match meeting and that is when all the parties agreed that they have to go for Mayele again,” an insider told Soccer Laduma regarding Kaizer Chiefs’ transfer plans.
“That’s why management and the board agreed that they would raise the bid for Mayele to R20m and hope Pyramids, who have been looking for between R22m to R25m, will be soft on them this time around.”
