Kaizer Chiefs Eye Bafana Bafana Midfielder Thabo Cele amid Middle Eastern Interest
Kaizer Chiefs’ Pursuit of Thabo Cele:
Kaizer Chiefs have been linked with a potential move for Bafana Bafana midfielder Thabo Cele, whose contract with Polish side Radomiak is nearing its end.
The 26-year-old is expected to become a free agent soon, making him an attractive target for several clubs, including Chiefs.
However, the South African club faces tough competition from the Middle East, where a new team has entered the race to secure Cele’s signature.
Stiff Competition from the Middle East:
Reports suggest that Kaizer Chiefs’ interest in Thabo Cele is being challenged by a new Middle Eastern contender.
The unnamed Emirati professional football club based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, has expressed its desire to acquire the midfielder.
This adds to the list of clubs vying for Cele’s services, which includes Sekhukhune United, Morocco’s AS FAR Rabat, and a Romanian club.
Mammila Unfazed by Chiefs Ahead of DStv Premiership Opener:

He confidently states that Chiefs are “very easy to play against,” suggesting that preparations for the match are straightforward.
Despite Chiefs’ appointment of Molefi Ntseki as their new head coach, Mammila doesn’t foresee any major surprises from the Amakhosi.
Kaizer Chiefs’ Season Opener in KwaZulu-Natal:
For the 2023/24 season, Kaizer Chiefs have chosen to host their opening home fixture against Chippa United at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in KwaZulu-Natal.
This decision reflects the club’s desire to start the campaign with momentum and determination.
Under the guidance of Molefi Ntseki, who has taken over as head coach, Chiefs aim to make a strong impact and improve on their fifth-place finish from the previous season.
Anticipation for the New Season:
With Molefi Ntseki now at the helm, Kaizer Chiefs are looking to revamp their squad and make significant strides in the league.
The recent acquisitions of new players have generated excitement among supporters, as the Glamour Boys prepare for a promising 2023/24 season.
