MASSIVE CHANGES COMING TO NATURENA
Kaizer Chiefs is a team truly in transition, but it’s a potentially exciting thing if you’re a follower of one of the continent’s mightiest clubs. With numerous outgoings and incomings, as well as a new man at the helm, the winds of change are blowing through Amakhosi.
AMAKHOSI: Latest news bulletin on Friday 21 July
KAIZER CHIEFS BRING IN SEVEN NEW FIRST TEAM PLAYERS
Chiefs have recruited central defenders Thatayaone Ditlhokwe and Given Msimango, attacking midfielder Mduduzi Mdantsane, central midfielder Edson Castillo, wide attackers Pule Mmodi and Tebogo Potsane, and central striker Ranga Chivaviro. That is a serious amount of surgery to the first-team spine, and fans of the Glamour Boys have reason to get a little excited.
