KGAOGELO SEKGOTA JOINS KAIZER CHIEFS

So how did KG and Amakhosi come to be? The nippy winger was brought in from Swallows FC by Gavin Hunt. The former Bidvest Wits coach had also been the one to sign Sekgota from Vitória Setúbal, Portugal.

The former Polokwane United winger was somewhat frustrating last season before emerging as a surprise first-choice winger under Zwane this season.

ARTHUR ZWANE ON WHY KG HAS BEEN CLASS

While two assists in 11 games is nothing wow, Sekgota has been breath of fresh air with the number of take-ons, crosses into the box, and tireless running in every game.

According to Zwane, the Chiefs star does himself a great favour with his attitude.

“Sekgota has been tremendous and I’m so happy for him and very proud of him,” Zwane said as quoted by iDiskiTimes.

“Why is he improving, he’s coachable, he’s one player that wants to learn new things, and ask the coach ‘I’m doing the right things or not?’

“These are the type of players that you just have to feed information slowly because if you overload them with information, then he might end up being confused. But as you can see in his game he’s improving every game and he’s one of our key players now,” Zwane concluded.

It’s tricky to find an image of Sekgota standing or walking on the pitch, he is always running. Image: @iDiskiTimes / Twitter.

Meanwhile, the Seshego-born player, who is still 25, is expected to start for Chiefs at FNB Stadium against Chippa United on Saturday at 17:30.
