Kaizer Chiefs have stepped up their transfer activity in recent weeks, focusing on strengthening their midfield options. The club is keen to add creativity and depth in the middle of the park as they prepare for a demanding season.
While much of the spotlight has been on defensive and attacking reinforcements, Kaizer Chiefs understand that midfield control will be key to their success. The club is reported to be tracking several young talents who could inject energy and skill.
Meanwhile, it appears AmaKhosi have given up on their pursuit for Stellenbosch left-back Fawaaz Basadien.
“Yes, there are youngsters who have been promoted to the senior team and will be traveling with the team to the Netherlands but Aphiwe (Baliti) has more experience than them in the top flight and that’s why they are considering him as it is believed they (Chiefs) can’t get Fawaaz Basadien or Mohamed Hussein at the moment,” a source revealed.
Midfield strategy evolving
Kaizer Chiefs are working hard behind the scenes to balance experience and youth. Adding versatile midfielders will give the coach more tactical options and help sustain performance levels throughout the season.
Supporters eagerly await official announcements as the transfer window draws to a close. Kaizer Chiefs fans want reassurance that the club is assembling a squad capable of competing for silverware.
Chiefs know that strong midfield presence will be critical in their quest to challenge for the league crown.
