Sabelo Radebe, 22, is a highly-regarded young prospect at Chiefs, but has played very little for the senior side and there may be worries that his career is beginning to stagnate.
The youngster is under contract until June 2026 on a long-term deal, and while Chiefs wouldn’t want to bid farewell to ‘Bibo’ permanently, Soccer Laduma recently reported that he could be sent out on loan.
Some rumours suggested that Stellenbosch could end up being a destination for Radebe, with the club having developed a strong working relationship with Chiefs.
According to Phakaaathi, though, he will instead be going out on loan in the Motsepe Foundation Championship next season.
“He is one of the top talents to come out from the development, but he is not ready to be a regular in the first team,” said a source.
“They gave him a lot of time to fight for a position, but he is not winning. There is something that is missing in his game.
He is not like Mduduzi (Tshabalala), that one is so confident and that’s what helps him. Sabelo is not, he is scared to play. That is why they (management) have decided to send him on loan.”
