Kaizer Chiefs face Golden Arrows next

Amakhosi haven’t scored a goal in three matches across all competitions in 2024. They produced goalless stalemates in all three, including their Nedbank Cup defeat to Milford on penalties. Their next opponents, Golden Arrows, are in indifferent form themselves. They’ve lost ll three matches they’ve played since the turn of the year. Kickoff from FNB Stadium is on Tuesday 5 March at 19:30.

According to Soccer-Laduma, Kaizer Chiefs have identified Alexandre Gallo as a priority managerial target. The Brazilian is with Santos. He set the unenviable record of getting the club relegated for the first time in their 111-year history in December 2023. Santos has produced several stellar stars, notably the late Pelé, Neymar Jr and Ganso. They’re currently in the second tier of Brazilian football but contesting the Campeonato Paulista A1, a competition reserved for clubs from São Paulo. Santos is a true giant of South American football with eight Brazilian top-flight titles and three Copa Libertadores crowns to their illustrious name. It’s a strange sight seeing them in the obscurity of Serie A. Amakhosi continue their seemingly futile pursuit of Pitso Mosimane.
