Kaizer Chiefs news

The 29-year-old goalkeeper is currently unattached as he carefully weighs up his next move after parting ways with Chippa United. He has listed South Africa as a preferred destination, fuelling speculation about a potential switch. This comes amid reported interest from Amakhosi, who have recently been grappling with a goalkeeping crisis.

The Soweto giants are expected to appoint a new coach at the end of the season, with Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef likely to make way. A number of names have already been thrown into the mix as speculation over the next appointment intensifies.

The Bafana Bafana international midfielder has been one of the Glamour Boys' main men on the pitch. However, he recently failed to make an impact, especially in critical matches where Amakhosi ended up getting eliminated from both domestic and continental tournaments.

The 21-year-old emerged as a generational talent in South African football, with his performances drawing widespread admiration. His rise has, however, also placed local fans on high alert, wary of the pressures and distractions that often come with such early acclaim. There is a growing concern that, like many gifted players before him, he could fall victim to the very pitfalls that have derailed other highly talented careers.

With some Premier Soccer League teams already planning for next season, the Soweto giants are said to have identified a midfielder plying his trade abroad as a key target. The player’s current club has since responded to the reported interest, addressing speculation linking him with a move to Naturena.

The 31-year-old playmaker has quickly become a key figure in the Soweto giants’ midfield since joining the side led by co-coaches Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef earlier this season. The ex-Mamelodi Sundowns star has been in fine form at Naturena, earning widespread praise from both the Amakhosi faithful and the technical team for how seamlessly he has settled into life at the club.

The Soweto giants appear to have finally cracked the right formula after a turbulent spell that even saw supporters protest at Naturena, demanding an end to the poor results. The turnaround has been evident in their recent performances, with a renewed sense of structure and confidence on the pitch. Their coach has pointed to what has led to the improved performances.

The Amakhosi midfielder has emerged as one of the club’s standout performers this season, consistently driving the team forward with his influence in the middle of the park. However, a former Soweto giants star believes his impact could be elevated even further with the right support alongside him. He has pinpointed a specific player he feels would perfectly complement the midfielder’s qualities.

The Glamour Boys are in impressive form after initially losing four games in a row. Now, they have their eyes set on the CAF Confederation Cup slot as their Premier Soccer League title dream faded. Given that Amakhosi are set to end the season trophyless, getting a ticket to the continental inter-club competition is the only reward they can give their fans.

The battle at the bottom remains unpredictable as the Mswenko Boys settled for a point in Bloemfontein. Meanwhile, Rise and Shine salvaged a late point against Chilli Boys, and Babina Noko’s Limpopo derby win reignited hopes of a strong finish following a winless run. Arrows also bounced back to collect all three points, as Usuthu were once again stalled in their push for CAF qualification.

The Sea Robbers sent a strong signal that they are serious about winning the title. The Soweto outfit now enjoys a sizeable margin against their rivals at the time the race is at its highest speed. Meanwhile, Siwelele managed to hold defending champions Amakhosi, but the result rules them out of title contention.

The Glamour Boys kept their winning run rolling as they hosted the Rockets in their Premier Soccer League showdown, pushing to finish the 2025/26 season strongly. With CAF Confederation Cup ambitions in sight, the door has now swung open for an even better finish, as Wandile Dube and co-coach Khalil Ben Youssef hinted, and this hot streak could prove key in turning what once seemed unlikely into reality.

Hugo Broos appears spoilt for choice in the goalkeeping department, with South Africa now seemingly boasting depth between the posts. The Belgian now faces a tough call in selecting his number one for the global football tournament.
