Kaizer Chiefs are undergoing a significant restructuring of their squad ahead of the new season under the guidance of their new head coach, Nasreddine Nabi.
So far, they’ve made five signings, with the one of Inacio Miguel, being the latest to be announced by Chiefs.
Five departures already
In terms of outgoings Keagan Dolly, Njabulo Ngcobo, Siyethemba Sithebe, Sifiso Hlanti and Jasond Gonzalez have left. Players such as Mduduzi Mdantsane and Tebogo Potsane are also thought to be at a crossroads at Chiefs.
One other player that was mentioned in the same breath earlier last season is defender Zitha Kwinika. Besides the unwanted players, it is believed that some assets have been targeted too and could be sold. One of those being forward Ashley du Preez!
Now according to Soccer-Laduma Mdantsane, Potsane and du Preez are three of 10 players Chiefs are trying to ship out. The rest being Thatayaone Ditlhokwe, Zitha Kwinika, Aden McCarthy, Happy Mashiane, Sabelo Radebe, Lehlohonolo Matlou, Wandile Duba and Christian Saile!
“These are the players (listed above) that the club (Chiefs) would want to see go on loan or sold out. As for Ashley (Du Preez) it’s a different situation because it’s a specific club that wants him. “It’s the same case with Saile who can go on loan and is wanted by two other PSL clubs.
Which means now the team will be looking at reinforcing those areas with new players who they have been monitoring and working around the clock to get,” said the source.
A second source added that Chiefs were also willing to offload some academy graduates permanently!
Chiefs set to add 10 more?
“It’s the same case with Saile who can go on loan and is wanted by two other PSL clubs. Which means now the team will be looking at reinforcing those areas with new players who they have been monitoring and working around the clock to get. But for now it’s about 10 players who could leave the club if you include Ashley Du Preez and Christian Saile as well,” said the second source.
