Kaizer Chiefs to sign 25-year-old based in Portugal?

Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly looking at several options abroad to bolster their dwindling defensive options.

Kaizer Chiefs target Mabuza

Local reports suggest that 25-year-old defender Mhleli Mabuza is top of Chiefs’ shopping list.

Via Soccer Laduma:

“The club is once again looking at bringing in Mhleli. They want him back. He trained with the team in the pre-season; unfortunately, the coaches were not impressed at that time.

“He went back to Portugal, where he signed a 1-year contract with Amora SAD because there was still hope of him coming back to Chiefs, and that’s why they have reignited the interest in him. But apparently, everything will be decided at the end of the season,” the insider informed Soccer Laduma. 

In January, Mabuza signed with Portuguese side O Elvas on a short-term deal which expires in June.

Chiefs aim to continue their winning run

Kaizer Chiefs came from a goal down to beat Orbit College 3-1 on Easter Monday. Wandile Duba equalised in the dying minutes of the first half after Mbulelo Wagaba had given the hosts the lead, before second-half goals from Mduduzi Shabalala and Siphesihle Ndlovu secured three points for Amakhosi. They now sit third in the league with 39 points from 21 matches.
