The club has decided not to renew Sifiso Hlanti’s contract, which expires in June, signalling the end of his time with the Kaizer Chiefs. Hlanti, who is 33 years old, is nearing the end of his career, therefore Chiefs are looking to replace him. Since Edmilson Dove, who is more of a central defender, does not fully satisfy the left-back job, it was decided to go elsewhere.
Kaizer Chiefs may be interested in signing Fawaaz Basadien from Stellenbosch FC. The team is reportedly keeping a close eye on Basadien and will decide whether or not to make him an offer at the end of the season. The move is part of Chiefs’ long-term strategy to bolster critical positions with promising young players.
Walter Bwalya, a 28-year-old striker who is now a free agent, is another name on Kaizer Chiefs’ radar. Bwalya, who has a reputation for scoring goals, has played professionally in Turkey, Egypt, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Morocco. According to reports, Bwalya is on Chiefs’ radar as a way to strengthen the team’s attacking depth. Kaizer Chiefs are taking a preventative approach to improving their squad by making moves ahead of the January transfer window to address key areas of concern.
