Kaizer Chiefs’ coach Nasreddine Nabi has been outspoken about the need to strengthen his squad.
One of his top targets for the upcoming transfer window is Luke Le Roux, a midfielder currently based in Sweden.
Le Roux, who left the PSL in 2020 for Varbergs BoIS FC, has since racked up an impressive 90 appearances in various leagues.
After a brief period at Volendam, Le Roux moved to IFK Värnamo, a club currently struggling in the Swedish league.
With only 31 points from 30 games, IFK Värnamo finds itself battling relegation in the play-off spots.
Now, reports suggest that Kaizer Chiefs are looking to bring the talented midfielder back to South Africa to bolster their team.
Le Roux’s Possible Return to South Africa
The rumors surrounding Le Roux’s potential return to the PSL have sparked excitement, but questions remain about his willingness to move.
An insider revealed that while Kaizer Chiefs certainly has the financial power to bring him back, it ultimately depends on Le Roux’s personal decision.
The same insider added that the Chiefs hope to sign players that both the technical team and management agree upon.
“It will be interesting to see what happens with him in January,” the source shared.
Kaizer Chiefs Secure Mduduzi Shabalala’s Future
In some positive news for Kaizer Chiefs fans, the club has successfully negotiated a contract extension with young star Mduduzi Shabalala.
The club is eager to retain their promising talent, especially after losing some to rival teams in the past.
The decision to offer Shabalala a three-year contract extension is seen as a move to secure his long-term future at the club.
Shabalala originally signed a three-year deal in June 2022, which would have kept him at Chiefs until 2025.
However, the new contract on the table will extend his stay at Naturena until at least 2028. Sources close to the club have confirmed that the deal is progressing positively.
“He loves being at the club, and that helps in negotiations,” one source said.
Both parties appear to be eager to finalize the deal, with the expectation that Shabalala will sign before the end of the current season.
