When Kaizer Chiefs let go of a few promising youngsters, TS Galaxy swooped in and found themselves with some hidden gems.
Two former Amakhosi players are now thriving at the PSL club, making a name for themselves with their consistent performances.
Khulumani Ndamane: A Defensive Gem for TS Galaxy
Khulumani Ndamane, the talented central defender, has quickly become a standout player at TS Galaxy.
Since joining the club in July 2024, Ndamane has been a regular starter, featuring in 15 matches across all competitions.
Under coach Adnan Beganovic, TS Galaxy has gone on an impressive 12-match unbeaten streak, and Ndamane’s contributions have been crucial to that success.
Beganovic has showered praise on the 20-year-old defender, stating that his calm and composed performances are beyond his years. “He plays with the confidence of a 35-year-old,” Beganovic said.
“In the air and on the ground, he’s exceptional. He’s fast, skilled, and confident with the ball.
I believe that soon, every PSL team will be interested in him,” he added.
Ndamane’s maturity on the pitch and technical ability make him one to watch for the future.
Puso Dithejane: A Rising Star Making Waves
Alongside Ndamane, former Chiefs youth product Puso Dithejane has been turning heads at TS Galaxy. Dithejane’s talent has already been widely recognized, and his performances continue to improve.
It’s clear that both Ndamane and Dithejane have found their footing at TS Galaxy, and with their development, the club is reaping the rewards of having these two players in their ranks.
Feisal Salum: A Potential Move to Kaizer Chiefs or Simba SC?
Meanwhile, Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly eyeing Tanzanian international Feisal Salum.
The Azam FC midfielder, who has impressed with his goalscoring ability and playmaking skills, is attracting attention from both Chiefs and Simba SC.
Salum is reportedly commanding a significant pay rise at Azam, but with Chiefs having the financial power to offer him a more lucrative deal, it remains to be seen whether he’ll leave his home country for a new challenge.
Although Salum has yet to make a major impact in the current Caf Champions League campaign, his previous season, in which he netted 19 goals, has sparked interest in his services.
Chiefs will have to negotiate carefully to secure his signature, as the midfielder’s future seems to be up in the air.
Upcoming Challenges for Kaizer Chiefs and Coach Nabi
Looking ahead, Kaizer Chiefs will be gearing up for an exciting clash in the Nedbank Cup.
After a dominant 4-0 victory over Free Agents FC, Chiefs will face Chippa United in the Round of 16 at home on Saturday, February 15.
The match is set to kick off at 18:00. Chiefs will also face a tough task in the Betway Premiership as they prepare to face SuperSport United on February 18, where former coach Gavin Hunt will return to challenge his former team.
A Look Back at Chiefs’ Departing Talents
As the new signings at TS Galaxy continue to make an impact, Kaizer Chiefs might be left to wonder if they made the right call in letting go of such promising talents.
Only time will tell if the decision to part ways with Ndamane and Dithejane will haunt them in the future.
