Kaizer Chiefs’ New Season Prospects Brighten as Striker Ranga Chivaviro Shares Excitement and Plans with Coach Nasreddine Nabi Ahead of Clash with Marumo Gallants in Bloemfontein

As the new football season approaches, Kaizer Chiefs striker Ranga Chivaviro is buzzing with optimism.

His recent discussions with the club’s new coach, Nasreddine Nabi, have injected him with hope for a standout 2024/25 campaign.

A Fresh Start

Chivaviro is heading into his second season with Chiefs with a renewed sense of enthusiasm.

The 2024/25 Betway Premiership kicks off on September 14th, and Chivaviro is eager to make a greater impact compared to his previous season.

In their season opener, the Glamour Boys will take on Marumo Gallants at the Toyota Stadium in Bloemfontein.

This match holds special significance for Chivaviro, as it will be against his former team.

Reflections on Last Season

The striker’s debut season at Chiefs was challenging. Struggles with injuries and team inconsistency limited his impact, resulting in four goals and one assist from 23 appearances.

Despite these hurdles, Chivaviro remains determined to turn things around under Nabi’s guidance.

Insights from Conversations with Nabi

During their talks, Nabi has reminded Chivaviro of his impressive form at Marumo Gallants, especially during the 2022/23 CAF Confederation Cup, where he scored seven goals in ten matches.

Nabi’s vision for Chivaviro is to rekindle that prolific form at Chiefs.

Chivaviro recalled their conversation, saying, “Nabi reminded me of my performance at Marumo Gallants and what he wants from me this season.

We’ve had productive discussions, focusing on bringing back that goal-scoring form.”

Looking Ahead

Chivaviro is keen to replicate his previous success and is optimistic about the team’s prospects.

He shared, “I want to bring back that form from Gallants and help elevate the team’s performance.

Nabi is setting high expectations for us, and everyone is excited for the season to start.”

The striker emphasized that success will depend on collective effort, both in defense and attack, and expressed eagerness to contribute alongside his teammates.
