Kaizer Chiefs in negotiations to sign SuperSport United youngster!
Kaizer Chiefs are looking to undergo a squad rebuild ahead of the next season, after a disappointing previous campaign. Although they won the Nedbank Cup, Chiefs still failed to finish the season in the top eight positions. This made it their second time in a row, under a second coach that they failed to qualify for the MTN8. With that, Chiefs are expected to make some big and telling changes to their playing personnel. This in an effort to ensure that they don't find themselves in a similar situation again next season. It is no secret that they are looking to bolster their attack going into next season. But that is just one department, as they are also intent on adding strength and depth to their defence. One position that is reportedly earmarked for that is the left-back berth. As it stands, Chiefs have Bradley Cross, Happy Mashiane, Edmilson Dove and Bongani Sam playing there. Sam did not play a single minute for Chiefs since joining from arch rivals Orlando Pirates last season. He is rumoured to be on his way out. Mashiane has continued to be a bit part player and also could leave. There is also uncertainty over the future of Dove, with his deal up at the end of the month. So with possibly three left-backs on the way out, at least two new ones would be needed. According to journalist Siya Gijana, Chiefs have registered an interest in young SuperSport United left-back Aphiwe Baliti. '𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗳𝘀 𝗜𝗻 𝗡𝗲𝗴𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲? SGSR has been informed that Kaizer Chiefs is currently in negotiations for the signature of SuperSport United Left back, 𝗔𝗽𝗵𝗶𝘄𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶.' Gijana wrote on his Facebook page . The 23-year-old Biliti only made his debut for the SuperSport first team last year, but seems to have impressed Chiefs. Amakhosi, would you like to see him at your club?

Kaizer Chiefs star SUSPENDED for the Nedbank Cup final
Kaizer Chiefs must reshuffle their defence to marshal Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup final. Who's missing out? Kaizer Chiefs left-back Bradley Cross won't take part in the weekend showpiece through suspension after his red card against Pirates in last weekend's league meeting. The 24-year-old has occasionally even been used at centre-back this season, such have been the injury struggles for manager Nasreddine Nabi to contend with. Edmilson Dove should shift out to deputise for Cross. Further up the pitch, coach Nabi must either opt for Thabo Cele ot Nkosingiphile Ngcobo to partner Yusuf Maart at the base of midfield. Predicted Amakhosi XI for the final Chiefs and Soweto rivals Orlando Pirates will play in their ninth meeting in a Nedbank Cup final. The match will kick off at 15:30 on Saturday, 10 May, at Moses Mabhida Stadium. History gives Kaizer Chiefs a chance Of the teams' eight previous meetings in the Nedbank Cup final, Kaizer Chiefs have won six finals – in 1971, 1976, 1977, 1981, 1984 and 2006. Orlando Pirates have managed two wins in 1975 and 1988. A 75% win ratio is a huge reason for Amakhosi fans to be cautiously optimistic. Who should play left-back against Pirates?
