Kaizer Chiefs want to strengthen in attack

According to Soccer-Laduma, Chiefs will prioritise the signing of a striker at the end of the 2023-24 campaign. Recruits Ranga Chivaviro and Jasond Gonzalez have been underwhelming so far and the club’s top brass want to upgrade in that position. Chivaviro, prolific for Gallants last season, has found the net just twice for Amakhosi in an injury-ravaged first campaign at Naturena. Colombian star Gonzalez has yet to break his duck.

Is this their shortlist of targets?

Cape Town City marksman Khanyisa Mayo is a long-term target although City chairman John Comitis has slapped a R37 million price tag on his head which might prove to be a deterrent. Sundowns are also reportedly interested in the 25-year-old who’s currently the joint-top scorer in the PSL. Stellenbosch wide attacker Iqraam Rayners is also on the club’s radar, as is the prolific second-tier marksman Keletso Makgalwa, a man who used to play under Pitso Mosimane at Sundowns.
