The Betway Premiership will meet a highly-rated attacking midfielder in Kaizer Chiefs colours. His parents named him Ethan Chislett.
According to several leading reporters, including FARPost’s Mthokozisi Dube and Lorenz Kohler at iDiski Times, the 26-year-old attacking midfielder has signed a two-year deal with Kaizer Chiefs, after he declined to renew his deal with Port Vale FC in the English League One division.
Kaizer Chiefs supporters should be glad to know that Chislett is a high-scoring midfielder with 40 goals in English football.

“So there was a lot of interest in Ethan,” Makaab added.
