DECISIONS FOR THE TOP BRASS

Colombian striker Jasond Gonzalez has failed to impress during his loan stint at the club so far with zero goals in eight appearances. So much so, that Chiefs are looking to cut the deal short and seek alternatives in the market. Demoted club icon Itumeleng Khune will hang up his gloves at the end of the current campaign, well, that’s what the club has said, so they’ll need to move fast on securing new deals for Petersen and Bvuma. Then again, they can also dip into the market with Salim Magoola heavily linked. Both Siyethemba Sithebe and George Matlou have fallen far down the midfield pecking order and will be allowed to leave. 33-year-old Sifiso Hlanti is also expected to leave. Fan favourite Nkosingiphile Ngcobo has struggled with injuries and a subsequent loss of form, but it’s unlikely the club will be ready to give up on the 24-year-old just yet. Keagan Dolly is also far likelier to leave than stick around.
