Kaizer Chiefs to sign Sundowns striker?
We forgive you for forgetting Etiosa Ighodaro plays for Mamelodi Sundowns. Are Kaizer Chiefs his next club? After three loan spells, the Nigerian is reportedly on his way out of Sundowns' books. Igodaro spent last season on loan at AmaZulu, where he scored six goals in 27 games. The season before, he was at Chippa United after his loan spell at the University of Pretoria. According to this latest report, Kaizer Chiefs are keen on the 23-year-old, whose deal with Sundowns ends on the 30th.

Last season's report said Amakhosi are keen to sign the Nigerian centre forward before Sundowns opted to send him to AmaZulu instead. With the likes of Arthur Sales and Lebogang Mothiba arriving at Sundowns last season, indications say the champions are ready to part ways with Igodaro. 'Yes, it's true. Kaizer Chiefs are believed to have enquired about Mamelodi Sundowns striker Etiosa Ighodaro. You know the thing is the same people who scouted him from Nigeria for Sundowns are the same who have enquired about him for Kaizer Chiefs,' a source told Soccer Laduma. Actually it's not the first time they have enquired about him. They tried before when he was on loan at Chippa United but Sundowns sent him on loan at SuperSport United. But now they are apparently looking at the possibility of Sundowns letting him go and they can pounce on him,' the source added. 'At the moment the club and the recruitment department have identified some strikers from where they believe they can get at least two or one that they really need,' the source continued. 'A striker and left back are the priority signings when compared to midfielders and wingers. Kaizer Chiefs are busy in the background working on getting a striker, and Ighodaro has apparently emerged as another target. That's the focus, it is to get a striker as early as they can before the pre-season training camp,' the insider told the outlet.
