Dolly’s Kaizer Chiefs dilemma

Dolly joined the Glamour Boys in 2021 after leaving French Ligue 1 outfit Montpellier. His career at Chiefs has been blighted by injuries and a lack of consistency while he’s managed just 64 appearances for the club, contributing 14 goals and 11 assists. According to the latest local reports, the former Ajax and Sundowns star will need to accept a salary reduction should he wish to extend his stay at Naturena. That’s according to SoccerLaduma.

Mixed injury update

Thatayaone Ditlhokwe dislocated his shoulder while on international duty in the most recent break with Botswana. Amakhosi’s worst fears were confirmed when the 25-year-old had to undergo surgery.

“TT (Ditlhokwe) came off the operating table yesterday for his shoulder and we expect him to be out for about three months. We wish him a good recovery. And Ashley (du Preez) is maybe a week and a half to two weeks away from being back.” Johnson told the Kaizer Chiefs Media team.

“Keagan Dolly is still recovering and is still involved in his rehab following his injury against Orlando Pirates.”
