For Kaizer Chiefs fans, the name Fiston Mayele has been circulating through transfer whispers for what feels like forever. And now, there’s fresh hope.
The Pyramids FC striker, who’s been on the club’s radar for multiple transfer windows, just dropped a pretty emotional post on social media—one that has many wondering if a big move is finally on the cards.
Mayele Bids an Emotional Thank You to Pyramids FC
In a recent Instagram post, Mayele reflected on his time at Pyramids FC with gratitude, saying:
“Two seasons with Pyramids, 41 goals in all competitions.
Thank you very much to the whole team and thanks to all these people for their help in everything, Alhamdulillah.”
He didn’t directly say goodbye, but the message certainly had that farewell tone.
For Chiefs, this could be the clearest signal yet that the door is open to finally sign the Tanzanian forward.
A Long-Awaited Opportunity for Chiefs
Kaizer Chiefs have been circling Mayele for some time, but things have never quite lined up.
Now, with Mayele hinting at a possible exit, the timing could be perfect—especially since Nasreddine Nabi is now in charge at Naturena.
The plot thickens: Nabi coached Mayele before.
That previous working relationship might just be the deciding factor to lure the prolific goal scorer to Chiefs.
And let’s be honest—Chiefs are in desperate need of someone clinical up front to turn things around.
The Pirates Factor
But here’s the twist: it’s not just Chiefs with their eyes on Mayele. Orlando Pirates are also in the mix.
They know exactly what he can do—he tore through them during a thrilling 3-2 CAF Champions League semi-final.
And then, he went on to help Pyramids overcome Sundowns in the final.
With both Soweto giants in the race, Mayele has a big decision to make.
Time for Chiefs to Make Their Move
If there was ever a moment for Amakhosi to act decisively, it’s now.
They’ve already lost out on key targets in recent years.
Bringing in a proven finisher like Mayele, especially under a coach he trusts, could be the spark they need heading into the new season.
What Do You Think—Chiefs or Bucs?
So, here’s the big question for fans: should Mayele wear gold and black next season, or join the Sea Robbers instead?
