Kaizer Chiefs have made it no secret that they’re trying to sign a prolific striker ahead of next season.
Chiefs’ goal scoring woes have been well documented over the past three seasons and they hope to fix that.
Chiefs searching for attacking reinforcements
There have been quite a few attackers linked with Chiefs going into the next season. This as a sign of what they’re trying to fix in the final third. Amakhosi have seen the likes of Fiston Mayele, Etiosa Ighodaro, Robert Polievka mentioned as strikers. In the wingers department Oswin Appollis, Elias Mokwana, Mihlali Mayambela and Keletso Makgalwa have been touted.
It was rumoured, however, that coach Nasreddine Nabi had travelled to Egypt to try and convince Mayele to join. This after he had reportedly convinced Feisal Salum to sign for Chiefs ahead of the new season. During that trip to Tanzania the Tunisian-born mentor was seen attending game featuring Simba SC and Sinigida. Now according to Micky Jnr, following that game, he attended a secret meeting to sign a striker. That being Steven Dese Mukwala of Simba.

“𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐃!
When you saw Nabi at the KMC Complex, the player he was watching in Simba v Singida’s game was Steven Dese Mukwala. Kaizer Chiefs’ head of scouting and recruitment Thembela Maliwa and Nabi’s assistant Cedric Kaze had a “𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠” with Steven Mukwala’s agent when they were in Tanzania for a possible move. The meeting took place in a hotel in Dar es Salaam. Chiefs have strong interest in the Ugandan striker and ready to make an offer to sign him. However, Simba’s President Mo Dewji has asked the club not to engage in any transfer negotiations for Mukwala until the end of the season in Tanzania. 12 goals. 3 assists. 1049 minutes played. Stats for Mukwala so far. One player to keep eyes on in the transfer market when the season ends in Tanzania.” Wrote the Micky Jnr
