Cedric Kaze, Kaizer Chiefs, November 2025

Kaze reviews Chiefs' season - 'Everyone was competing & we were very close until...'

The Amakhosi co-coach has offered a candid assessment of the club’s season, insisting the Glamour Boys were genuine title contenders for large parts of the campaign. He believes Chiefs consistently pushed the log leaders and remained firmly in the mix until a late-season dip slowed their momentum. Despite that setback, the Burundian tactician feels there is plenty to take forward, highlighting there's lessons picked and how they can be done differently going forward as the team looks to mount a stronger and more sustained challenge at the summit in the future.
