Katsande: Veteran midfielder signs new Kaizer Chiefs deal

Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Willard Katsande has signed a new one-year deal with the club. 

The news was announced by Amakhosi on their social media platforms on Wednesday afternoon. 

Katsande has been with the Soweto giants since 2011, and he's considered one of the club's legends due to his contribution over the years.

The Zimbabwe international's previous deal with Amakhosi was set to expire in June but Chiefs saw it fit to extend his stay until the end of June 2021. 

Katsande arrived at Chiefs in 2011 from Ajax Cape Town, and despite a difficult period upon his arrival, he rose to prominence and owned the midfield position at the club. 

He has already featured 272 times for the club while scoring 17 goals during his nine-year stay. 

Katsande joins a list of players who have been handed new deals by the club, including Daniel Akpeyi and Bernard Parker.
