Kaizer Chiefs drop hint regarding Fiston Mayele?

Kaizer Chiefs might be preparing for a big swoop to sign Fiston Mayele. Here’s the latest from Naturena as things stand.

Castillo could pave the way for Mayele’s arrival at Kaizer Chiefs

Uruguayan midfielder Gaston Sirino is registered as a local player after obtaining South African citizenship. However, if Chiefs want to sign foreign players like Fiston Mayele, they’ll need to de-register one of their existing foreign players. Venezuelan midfielder Edson Castillo is reportedly a player Chiefs are willing to cut in order to accommodate new arrivals. This is according to the Citizen.

Amakhosi face a nail-biting chase for an MTN8 place

With the news of Royal AM’s expulsion from the PSL, all points collected against them have become null and void. As a result, the revised table sees Chiefs sit on 29 points after 23 games. Previously, they were on 30 points after 24 outings. Points mean more than games in hand at this stage of a campaign. Chippa and Golden Arrows both pose a serious threat to their ambitions of a top-eight finish; the Chilli Boys are now level on points with the Glamour Boys and have a game in hand on Nabi’s men. An imminent trip to Chippa on Saturday 19 April at 17:30 could be make or break. Defeat in this clash is unthinkable for Amakhosi fans.
