Kaizer Chiefs corporate and marketing manager Jessica Motaung has scoffed at suggestions that the club is not willing to break the bank for players. Over the years, Chiefs have been accused of channeling their energies on free agents. “Chiefs pay a lot of money, sir. So, I’m actually quite surprised, so I think it is absolute nonsense,” reacted Motaung, who was speaking to the media at the launch of the Toyota Cup on Thursday. “If I look at our budgets…

Kaizer Chiefs have confirmed yet another pre-season friendly, coming up against one of the African giants.

The fixture brings together two clubs with proud legacies, passionate fan bases, and a shared place in the heritage of African football,” said Chiefs. The Toyota Cup made its debut in 2024 with…

Kaizer Chiefs have released a fifth player in recent times as they make way for their new signings. Midfielder Mduduzi Mdantsane is the latest to head to the exit at their Naturena base, south of Johannesburg. The 30-year-old arrived at the club in 2023 from Cape Town City and a lot was expected from him, but Mdantsane only managed a paltry 16 appearances and two assists, before he was loaned out to Richards Bay, where he also struggled for game…

He’s expected to join bitter rivals Kaizer Chiefs, alongside Paseka Mako, who was also let go by the Buccaneers.

Local football agent Mike Makaab is putting out the fires after a rather surprising revelation that his client Sipho Mbule has been offered to Kaizer Chiefs. Makaab, who’s the director of ProSport International and has been in the business for almost three decades, was on the receiving end of criticism late Sunday when he went public about Mbule and Chiefs. “Let me set the record straight. Sipho Mbule has been offered to Kaizer Chiefs. It is up to the club…

“If we have a striker, maybe I’m number three this season.” With these words, Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi has explained the team’s missing link. Chiefs have failed to make the top eight for a second successive season, and while there are no guarantees Nabi would be staying, he’s not in two minds about what needs to be fixed. Nabi said Chiefs needed a potent striker, and their top scorer in the league is Wandile Duba, who scored five goals…

Kaizer Chiefs have finished outside of the top eight for the second season in a row. Amakhosi had their last chance to move up the Betway Premiership standings when they faced Polokwane City at the FNB Stadium on Saturday.

The Phefeni Glamour Boys are currently placed ninth after their last game of the season but could finish as lowly as 11th depending on other results.…
