Xolani Cossa, a young and talented defender from Kaizer Chiefs, is making waves in South African football.
After impressing in a few training sessions with the senior team and delivering standout performances in the DStv Diski Challenge (DDC), the 20-year-old is now on the radar of major teams, including Jwaneng Galaxy, a top-tier club in Botswana.
Jwaneng Galaxy Interested in Loan Move
Sources close to the situation reveal that Jwaneng Galaxy is keen to bring Cossa on loan in January.
The Botswana-based club has been watching the defender closely, particularly due to his impressive showings for Chiefs’ DDC side.
A well-placed insider shared that the club’s technical team is well aware of Cossa’s abilities, noting, “They know the player from the Chiefs DDC side and have already expressed interest.”
However, Cossa cannot be loaned abroad just yet, as his current amateur status restricts international transfers.
Once he signs a professional contract with Kaizer Chiefs in January, a loan deal could become a reality.
Chiefs Looking to Secure Cossa’s Future
As talks of a loan to Jwaneng Galaxy heat up, Kaizer Chiefs are working to ensure Cossa signs a senior team contract by the start of 2024.
This move would open the door for a potential loan to the Botswana club, allowing Cossa to gain valuable experience abroad.
A source close to the situation explained, “The interest from Jwaneng Galaxy should accelerate the process of him getting that first-team contract… It’s a win-win for both clubs.”
The possibility of a loan deal highlights Kaizer Chiefs’ confidence in Cossa’s talent and their desire to help him develop further.
A professional contract is key to making this move happen, as it would allow for the necessary international clearance.
Cossa’s Rise to the First Team
At just 20 years old, Cossa has already proven himself to be a promising talent.
His performances helped Chiefs clinch the Home of Legends trophy after defeating Mamelodi Sundowns in a thrilling final.
His recent form has not only caught the eye of local teams but also attracted interest from clubs outside South Africa, signaling a bright future ahead.
As Cossa prepares to sign a senior contract with Chiefs, his journey from the DDC side to potentially securing a loan overseas is one to keep an eye on.
Will Jwaneng Galaxy secure his services in January? It’s an exciting time for the young defender, and his rise in South African football is undeniable.
