    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Kaizer Chiefs released left-back cum midfielder Kgaogelo Ramushu in January.

    The player has since found a new home at Polokwane City and was an unused substitute on Wednesday in a Premier Soccer League match against Golden Arrows.

    Amakhosi coach Nasreddine Nabi did not have Ramushu in his plans, leading to the player's release.

    WHO IS RAMUSHU

    Ramushu is 23 years old and is a versatile player who can play as a left-back or as a midfielder.

    He was captain of Amakhosi's reserve side, although he struggled to make his way up to the first team.

    The utility star was part of the South Africa Under-23 squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Togo.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Chiefs will be hoping that releasing Ramushu will not be another blunder like the one they committed last season when they fired reserve team players.

    The likes of Stellenbosch star Omega Mdaka and TS Galaxy's Puso Dithejane were let go by the Soweto giants to go on and become top performers at their latest clubs.

    This comes as Chiefs have been heavily criticised for not being spot-on in the transfer market.

    WHAT NEXT?

    Apart from scouring the transfer market for players, Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi will be hoping they have quality players coming through Amakhosi's development ranks.

    Their traditional rivals, Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns, have been churning out top-performing young players like Relebohile Mofokeng, Mohau Nkota, Mbekezeli Mbhokazi, Kutlwano Lethaku and Siyabionga Mabena.
