Kaizer Chiefs backed to sign experienced forwards ahead of CAF Confederation Cup campaign by acquiring Bafana Bafana vice-captain Percy Tau and Mamelodi Sundowns striker Peter Shalulile

Kaizer Chiefs are still in the market for players and they have been urged to have a look at two experienced players.

Veteran coach Mlungisi Ngubane feels out-of-contract Percy Tau would be perfect fit in Nasreddine Nabi's side, together with Peter Shalulile who appears unsettled at Mamelodi Sundowns.

"If Chiefs can sign Shalulile, he would provide them with a strong season and help restore the team's dignity. Just imagine if they could also add Tau to the mix," Ngubane told KickOff.

"But they must also remember to secure a goalkeeper who can turn games in their favour. Every team needs one."  

For a club going to take part in the CAF Confederation Cup next season, Chiefs might need the experience of 31-year-old Tau.

His signing would make financial sense since he is a free agent, the way Amakhosi got Thabiso Monyane, Paseka Mako and Ethan Chislett.

However, Tau's competitive level has decreased and that could be the only worry.

On Shalulile, Amakhosi could be closely monitoring his Sundowns contract situation as his contract expired on June 30.

But the Brazilians might have exercised the option of extending it by two years since they went with him to the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

Chiefs are currently in the Netherlands where they have set up a pre-season base camp in preparation for next season.

It would be interesting for their fans to see new signings joining their squad in Europe should they pursue Tau and Shalulile.
