Kaizer Chiefs are eyeing a reunion with a former player who recently departed the club.
As they navigate the current transfer window, Chiefs have set their sights on several key targets from rival teams within the Premier Soccer League (PSL).
Among these potential signings are two players previously sought after by Mamelodi Sundowns, along with a standout talent from Orlando Pirates.
Reassessing Departures
The landscape of Kaizer Chiefs has seen significant changes over recent seasons, with notable exits including Keagan Dolly, Khama Billiat, and S’fiso Hlanti.
Additionally, promising young players like Dumisani Zuma and Puso Dithejane have also moved on, primarily due to disciplinary issues.
Zuma’s departure was tied to an incident involving alcohol, which went against the club’s strict substance policies.
Dithejane, on the other hand, faced a situation involving a ball boy, which was deemed less serious in the grand scheme.
Despite the circumstances of his exit, the Chiefs have reflected on Dithejane’s departure with some regret.
Their interest in bringing him back signifies a desire to correct what they view as a mistake.
An insider shared with SoccerLaduma that discussions within the club suggest a shift in perspective about Dithejane, indicating they are keen to re-sign him.
The Journey Back to Naturena
Dithejane’s history with the Chiefs runs deep; he rose through the ranks, having played for their DDC side and graduated from the academy.
However, the manner of his release left him feeling undervalued and disrespected by the club.
The insider noted, “He felt disrespected when he left the club, but at the same time, he has grown there and would love to return.”
This puts both Dithejane and the club in a complicated situation.
While Chiefs have expressed their interest in his return, it ultimately hinges on how the player feels about the circumstances surrounding his departure.
The club’s intentions are clear, but the path back may not be straightforward given the emotional weight of his exit.
As the Chiefs move forward, it remains to be seen how they will navigate this potential transfer and what it will mean for both Dithejane and the team.
