KAIZER CHIEFS CAPTURE DU PREEZ AND KWINIKA FROM STELLENBOSCH

As The South African reported this week, the Glamour Boys announced the duo at the start of this week.

The Stellenbosch-born player will arrive at Chiefs to give coach Arthur Zwane options as a center forward, number 10, seven, and 11. 

Kwinika will operate as a central defender, and perhaps an emergency right-back when called upon. At just 28, we would not be surprised to spot him in defensive midfield one day.
