Kaizer Chiefs might need to free up some foreign spots if they want to land their latest rumoured transfer target.
Kaizer Chiefs target Makhele
According to Soccer Laduma, Kaizer Chiefs are interested in signing Chilli Boys defender Thabo Makhele. The 30-year-old, who stands at 1.88m tall, was born in South Africa but chose to represent the Lesotho National Team.
“As much as they are looking at the attacking department, they also want to strengthen the defence as they haven’t yet replaced TT (Ditlhokwe), and they are also looking at releasing other defenders as well,” a source told the outlet.
“So they have been monitoring Thabo Makhele from Chippa United. He is experienced and very solid. He would help the team if they want to fight for trophies next season. They’ll be playing in Africa. So that’s one of the reasons they have been monitoring and have enquired about him,” the source added on Soccer Laduma.
“They are looking at revamping and overhauling the squad next season. It’s believed that the coach wants to build a squad which will be like his own with the players he is recommending. So with them targeting Thabo Makhele, they are also looking at releasing some as well,” he concluded.
Is Makhele a solid option for Kaizer Chiefs?
