Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates Compete for Hungry Lions Striker Muzomuhle Khanyi as He Impresses with 17 Goals in the Motsepe Foundation Championship

Muzomuhle Khanyi, a 24-year-old striker currently playing for Hungry Lions, has become one of the most talked-about players in South African football.

Known for his impressive goal-scoring form, Khanyi has netted an impressive 17 goals in the Motsepe Foundation Championship this season.

His performance has caught the attention of two of the biggest teams in the country: Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates.

Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates Eye Khanyi

Both Chiefs and Pirates are reportedly keen on bringing Khanyi into their squads, especially with the promising form he has shown.

If he continues at this pace, it’s likely he could secure a major contract come season’s end.

Chiefs recently made a new signing in the January transfer window, while Pirates have been trying out different strikers like Evidence Makgopa and Tshegofatso Mabasa, though neither has managed to make a standout impact this season.

This uncertainty in their attack may be why the Buccaneers are now considering a proven goal-scorer like Khanyi.

However, the big question is whether Khanyi can maintain this consistency in his performances moving forward.

The Battle Between Chiefs and Pirates

Soccer Laduma has reported that Orlando Pirates have had their eye on Khanyi for several months.

However, it seems that Chiefs have now joined the race for his signature.

Given that the Chiefs have faced struggles in front of goal, they might find Khanyi’s potential as a key addition to their squad more urgent than Pirates do.

A source revealed that both teams have shown interest in Khanyi this season, with the player seemingly on his way out of Hungry Lions at the end of the current campaign.

“Enquiries have been made from Chiefs about Khanyi, and it looks like the player will definitely be leaving Hungry Lions at the end of the season.

This is the player who has been on the radar of Pirates for some time, and Chiefs are now showing interest,” the source shared with Soccer Laduma.

Who Needs Khanyi More: Chiefs or Pirates?

With both clubs vying for the same player, the question remains: which team truly needs him the most? Would Khanyi be the missing piece to strengthen Chiefs’ attack, or could he bring the goals Pirates are missing? Fans are eager to see how this story unfolds.
