KAIZER CHIEFS AGREE DEAL FOR MAKGALWA

According to iDiski Times, Makgalwa will be on his way to Naturena but only in time for the start of the 2024-25 campaign.

“Information received from a reliable source confirmed that City agreed to let Makgalwa join Chiefs, but not in the January window and only when the current season finishes. Bafana Ba Gucci could not let Makgalwa join Chiefs in the current season as they are competing for promotion in the Motsepe Foundation Championship, sitting fourth place three points behind table toppers Orbit College,” they said.

MAKGALWA KNOWS THE PSL

Keletso Makgalwa won three league titles with Pitso Mosimane at Sundowns. However, he went out on loan to Swallows in the 2021-22 campaign. From there he headed to TS Galaxy, becoming a bit-part player for the Rockets. After another loan stint with All Stars FC, he was released at the start of the current campaign to head to Upington City. He’s started well there, with four goals and three assists in 10 league outings.

His performances at City haven’t gone unnoticed as he attracted interest from various teams like Sekhukhune United, Richards Bay and Kaizer Chiefs.
