Kaizer Chiefs transfers: New Bafana goalkeeper
Kaizer Chiefs are anticipated to find and introduce a new goalkeeper for the 2025/26 season. Bruce Bvuma, Brandon Petersen and Fiacre Ntwari earned opportunities but failed to seize them fully.
While Petersen and Bvuma signed new deals last season, and Bvuma joined from TS Galaxy last winter, Amakhosi is expected to part ways with at least one of them.
Rumours suggest Ntwari could be sacrificed for the purpose of opening up a foreign spot. The Premier Soccer League permits no more than five foreign players on each team.

In the meantime, reports say Sekhukhune United and Bafana Bafana's newly-capped 27-year-old goalkeeper, Leaner, has been noticed by the Glamour Boys.
'Kaizer Chiefs are set to make an enquiry to Sekhukhune United over goalkeeper Renaldo Leaner, who has broken into the senior national team,' iDiski Times reported.

'The 27-year-old iKamva graduate earned his way into the Sekhukhune line-up shortly after the arrival of Eric Tinkler and made a huge impression, more notably in the Nedbank Cup, where he pulled off a Man of the Match display in their 1-0 loss to Mamelodi Sundowns.
The publication further confirmed that Sekhukhune are in no position to lose Learner.
'Babina Noko have since parted ways with veteran goalkeeper Badra Ali Sangare and Lloydt Kazapua, and while they are in the market for replacements, the chance of granting a sale to Kaizer Chiefs for Learner remains slim at present,' the outlet concluded.

Kaizer Chiefs star reportedly set for exit as Nabi eye new midfield
Kaizer Chiefs are wasting no time preparing for the upcoming season, with head coach Nasreddine Nabi pushing forward an aggressive squad refresh, and midfield lies at the heart of his plans. Nabi has already earmarked new talent to strengthen the engine room, with Tanzanian international Feisal Salum and Sipho Mbule possibly topping his wishlist. These moves signal a strategic shift for the Amakhosi, particularly in central midfield, where competition is set to intensify. Samkelo Zwane, who managed just 13 appearances across all competitions last season, now finds himself in a precarious position. As new midfield talent edges closer to Naturena, Zwane risks being pushed further down the pecking order. Zwane's representatives are preparing to meet with Chiefs management to clarify the club's stance. They want to know whether the 23-year-old still fits into Nabi's long-term vision — or if a loan spell might offer him a better path forward. With uncertainty clouding Zwane's future, rival clubs are circling. According to reports, AmaZulu are among the teams keeping a close eye on developments. 'I don't know about any AmaZulu interest but the boy needs game time. The way I see it right now is that he is going nowhere, as things stand,' a source close to the player told this publication. Despite the rumours, Zwane remains determined to fight for his place at Chiefs. But his camp understands the risks of another season with limited opportunities, especially during a critical phase of his development. Should Zwane stay at Kaizer Chiefs or find a new home?
