Following the conclusion of their 2021/22 season, Kaizer Chiefs are expected to announce two new signings.
The Glamour Boys finished a disappointing season with a 2-2 draw against Swallows FC at home on Saturday afternoon.
The’major’ renovation at Naturena is set to begin in the following days. TWO fresh signings are expected from Arthur Zwane’s side!
According to sources, Kaizer Chiefs will debut outstanding PSL defender Zitha Kwinika as well as the relatively forgotten midfielder Siyethemba Sithebe!
Kwinika joined the Glamour Boys from Stellenbosch, where he had a fantastic season and was named Player of the Season.
Sithebe on the other hand has been frozen out since January by AmaZulu, due to his looming move to Kaizer Chiefs!
Stellenbosch FC head coach Steve Barker all but confirmed that Zitha Kwinika will be joining Kaizer Chiefs.
“I’d like to wish Zitha well. He’s going back to his boyhood club where he’s developed,” Barker said as quoted by IDiskiTimes.
“Zitha will go back to Kaizer Chiefs, he deserves everything of the best. We wish him well, but be aware that we’re coming for you next season.”
While the transfer fee remains undisclosed, according to Transfermark the 28-year-old defender is valued at approximately R12 million.
Considering the fact that Kwinika’s the captain and arguably one of the most important Stellenbosch player, it’s hard to believe they’d let their star join Kaizer Chiefs for a ‘bargain’!
