The 20-year-old South African defender was, together with goalkeeper Chris Brady, instrumental in keeping L'Impact at bay. Puso Dithejane got more minutes under his belt as a second half substitute as the Men in Red closed the distance on the log leaders with their second win in a row.

The 20-year-old South African defender was back in Gregg Berhalter's starting eleven after being rested for Saturday's 3-1 home defeat to Red Bull New York. But it was his fellow countryman who had the critical impact in winning the penalty that ultimately led to the Men In Red taking the lead.

Chiefs legend delivers crucial lessons for Bafana Bafana attackers ahead of WC

Over the years, some high-profile strikers have come out of Mzansi, but recently, the upcoming ones have struggled to reach the standards set by their predecessors. As Hugo Broos looks forward to naming his World Cup squad, he should be scratching his head on whether the available centre-forwards will deliver. Before then, though, a retired striker has shared lessons for the current crop.

As he shines, the promising attacker has been linked with a move to the Premier Soccer League's big three. According to transfer rumours, he is the most sought-after talent right now in the country.

Chiefs youth graduate Dithejane sends message to Bafana coach Broos ahead of World Cup

The 21-year-old has been on a steady rise in recent years, transforming his career. From being an Amakhosi discard, he rebuilt his reputation to become one of the standout performers in the Premier Soccer League while turning out for TS Galaxy. He is now forging a club career overseas as he looks to scale even greater heights, including in international football.

In what could be a challenge for established South Africa stars, the Belgian has been urged to pick up an Amakhosi academy product who has been doing well recently. Apart from the former Glamour Boy, the Mzansi coach has been encouraged to look at another PSL star who is yet to be exposed to international football.

The 21-year-old’s exit from Naturena might have come as a blessing in disguise, thrusting him into the limelight and opening doors to regular football at a time when some Amakhosi youngsters have struggled for Premier Soccer League opportunities. His spell at TS Galaxy provided the platform he needed to rebuild momentum and showcase his talent away from the intense pressure of the Soweto giants. That progress has now earned him a move abroad, with the youngster sealing a switch to Major League Soccer outfit Chicago Fire FC.

Amakhosi have signed just one player so far in the January transfer window, with the recruit arriving at Naturena on loan from Cape Town City and set to feature for the DStv Diski Challenge side. This means the Soweto giants are yet to make any new additions to their first-team squad despite the open window. A retired footballer has weighed in to outline what he believes should be Amakhosi’s key transfer priorities.

TS Galaxy move closer to Chiefs after starting life without Dithejane & Ndamane with convincing Gallants win

After selling their prized asset, the Rockets managed a convincing win in their first game without the South African player. The attacker left the club and signed for Chicago Fire in the Major Soccer League, and his former team looked solid despite missing his vital services. The challenge for Galaxy now is whether they can keep the tempo or they will falter on the road and miss Dithejane's creativity in the final third.

In a bid to boost their prospect of finishing in the top eight bracket, the club is hoping to strengthen their squad in order to achieve their ambition. Among the players they want to bring on board is an attacker who was sharpened at the Bucs' academy. The need for a lethal attacking department has been made even more urgent after Puso Dithejane left.

Since he was a teenager, the forward showed the potential of developing into a top player. Now, just 21, after making his presence felt in the Premier Soccer League, the South African star is set for an entirely new challenge after signing for Chicago Fire. Even before he was signed by the Major Soccer League side, he was a subject of intense interest from PSL giants Amakhosi and Masandawana.

The 25-year-old left-back is one of the quality players at the Glamour Boys who were brought on board by former coach Nasreddine Nabi to help in rebuilding the Soweto giants, who have not been delivering consistently, in recent years, as they should both domestically and on the continental scene.

The centre-back was part of the Bafana Bafana team that featured in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Morocco, where they reached the Round of 16.
