Kaizer Chiefs head coach Arthur Zwane opened up on his concerns over a struggling first team player.

Phathutshedzo Nange made just his fourth appearance over the weekend for the Glamour Boys this season in their Nedbank Cup victory over Maritzburg United.

The midfielder has been plagued by injuries since joining the Glamour Boys in 2021.

Zwane has struggled to find the right balance in his midfield and Nange’s luck hasn’t helped his coach at all.

Take a look at what the Amakhosi mentor had to say regarding the injury prone midfielder below.

Why Zwane is worried about Kaizer Chiefs midfielder

“I hope this will boost his confidence going forward and that he will stay injury free because I’m worried.” the Kaizer Chiefs head coach said as quoted by Kick-Off.

“Whenever he gains momentum, something will happening to him. So, I’ll just pray for him and hope that this time around he stays fit. I know with his experience he’ll help us be better.”

In other news, former Kaizer Chiefs striker Lazarous Kambole can’t stop scoring at the moment!

The striker who ultimately failed to crack it at the Glamour Boys recently returned to Zesco United in Zambia.

Kambole scored his fourth goal in three games when Zesco held log leaders Power Dynamos to a 1-1 draw this weekend.

The Zambian striker audaciously back-heeled the ball into the back of the net from close range. Watch the goal below!

To put things into perspective, Kambole managed to find the back of the net just twice in 46 appearances for Kaizer Chiefs.

This begs the question, is the standard of the Zambian league that low? Or are the Glamour Boys at fault for grossly misusing the in-form striker?
