Kaizer Chiefs is one of the richest football clubs in South Africa. So, it comes as no suprise that Amakhosi players are amongst the most expensive in the Transfer market.
Kaizer Chiefs are well-known for their incredible buying power.
In fact, at one point Amakhosi had the three highest-paid players in the PSL – Keagan Dolly, Samir Nurkovic and Khama Billiat – at the same time. Now, despite continuous failed campaigns in the Betway Premiership, the Soweto giants still boast some of the most valuable players in the entire PSL.
*Please note that all of these values are based off of the reported latest player values on Transfermarkt.
CHIEFS MOST VALUABLE PLAYERS – RANKED AND REVEALED
- Yusuf Maart (Amakhosi Captain) – (R20.7 MILLION)
Chiefs captain Maart is valued at approximately, $1 million.
This equates to almost R21 million (R20.7 million). Thus, making him the most highly valued player in the transfer market.
2. Given Msimango/Reeve Frosler – R18.7 MILLION
Interestingly, two under-utilised defenders share the honour of being Amakhosi’s second-highest most valuable players. Both centre back, Msimango and right back, Frosler have an estimated market value of $900 000 which equotes to R18.65 million (roughly R18.7 million).
3. Ashley Du Preez – R17.6 MILLION
The speedy attacker has blown hot and cold since joining Chiefs from Stellies a few seasons ago. However, whilst his transfer market evaluation has dipped to $850 000 (R17.6 millin), he is still one of the most valuable players at Amakhosi.
Moreover, he is also one of the most highly valued players in the PSL today.
4. Mduduzi Shabalala – R14.5 MILLION
Mdu Shabalala is one of the fastest-rising young talents in the PSL. A couple of seasons ago he was playing for Amakhosi’s DDC side. Now, he is a regular starter in the Chiefs senior side and one of the most valuable players in the PSL. ‘Mdu’ is valued at $700 000 which is approximately R14.5 million.
5. Rushwin Dortley/Bradley Cross – R13.5 MILLION
Both youngsters were recently signed when Nasreddine Nabi took over the reins at Chiefs. So, whilst neither transfer fee was disclosed, we know both players are worth big money.
Furthermore, both Dortley and Cross are valued at $R650 000. Meaning, both men have an estimated transfermarkt value of R13.47 million (R13.5 million).
NOTICEABLE MENTIONS: Njabulo Blom and Inacio Miguel
Blom was one of the most valuable players before he returned to the United Stated. His market value currently sits at $900 000 (R18.7 million). Thus, mmaking him one of the most valuable players to leave Chiefs in recent seasons.
Brutal defender, Inacio Miguel has an estimated market evaluation that sees him worth $600 000 (R12.43 million). Meaning, if any of the players on this list depart from Naturena, Miguel will become one of the top five most valuable players left at Chiefs.
DO YOU BELIEVE ANY OF THESE AMAKHOSI STARS ARE OVER OVERLY RATED (WORTH LESS)? SHOULD ANY CHIEFS PLAYERS BE WORTH MORE? IF SO, WHO AND WHY?
