Kaizer Chiefs' R50 million budget but only have Fiacre Ntwari, Rushwin Dortley, Bongani Sam & Inacio Miguel to show for it ahead of 2024-25 PSL season
GOAL GFXNaresddine Nabi, the head coach of the Kaizer Chiefs, is frustrated with the stubbornness of his PSL counterparts in the transfer window, as selling fees for Amakhosi players have surged.
Kaizer Chiefs have only signed five players, one of whom was a free agent, despite having R50 million plus an additional R10 million for emergencies. This raises questions about what exactly is happening in Amakhosi’s recruitment department, overseen by sporting director Kaizer Motaung Jr.
The newly appointed head coach Nabi is experiencing frustration. He is aware that the funds are available and accessible, yet he criticizes PSL teams for their unwillingness to sell players to them. There has long been a belief that smaller teams frequently hike up their prices when the more prestigious teams express interest.
More often than not, the staggering transfer tags placed on players turn teams like Chiefs away – but with the reported R60 million set aside to bolster the squad, surely Amakhosi can land at half a dozen quality players ahead of the start of the 2024-25 PSL season. GOAL looks at the transfer dealings at Amakhosi.
