New-look Kaizer Chiefs: All 18 confirmed deals
Kaizer Chiefs have been as busy with squad cuts as they are with player recruitments. Kaizer Chiefs have released EIGHT players. Meanwhile, Amakhosi have been spotted with 10 new players in their squad. Therefore, these 18 men will usher in the new era of football at Chiefs with a new captain set to lead them. Chiefs have signed Nkanyiso Shinga, Flavio Silva, Ethan Chislett, Paseko Mako, Thabiso Monyane and Siphesihle Ndlovu.

Thus, bringing the total of new faces at Chiefs to 10 – that's almost a whole new starting XI worth of players. Interestingly, Chiefs are far from done with their transfer business. There are more players on Amakhosi and Nasreddine Nabi's radar. Currently, Chiefs are closing in on Asenali Velebayi and Luke Baartmen from Cape Town Spurs. Meanwhile, they are still in the market for another striker and goalkeeper. Chiefs have released Ranga Chivaviro, Sabelo Radebe, Njabulo Blom, Edmilson Dove, Mduduzi Mdantsane, Yusuf Maart, Tebogo Potsane and Bongani Sam so far. However, as mentioned, they are not done with squad changes yet. Fiacre Ntwari and Edson Castillo are both facing likely exits out of Naturena. Ntwari was dropped by Nasreddine Nabi halfway through the 2024/25 PSL season. Bruce Bvuma and Brendan Peterson were rotated throughout the second half of the season. Finally, Castillo has reportedly already left Chiefs. Let us know by leaving a comment below or sending a WhatsApp to 060 011 0211.

Kaizer Chiefs: SEVENTH signing confirmed?
Kaizer Chiefs are set to announce more signings with their seventh signing imminent. Kaizer Chiefs have signed SIX players so far. Meanwhile, Amakhosi are closing in on their SEVENTH signing of the transfer window. Initially, Chiefs signed Nkanyiso Shinga, Flavio Silva and Ethan Chislett. Thereafter, they confirmed Paseka Mako and Thabiso Monyane as their next new player additions. Finally, Siphesihle Ndlova was unveiled as their sixth signing of the campaign. Chiefs have reportedly already agreed to personal terms with Asanele Velebayi and Luke Baartman from PSL rivals, Cape Town City. However, as reported on The South Africa, the two clubs are in a legal dispute over these two players. Meaning, Amakhosi can not announce these players until they have sorted out this dispute. Jessica Motaung has assured fans that there will be more signings with more Chiefs player announcements expected in the coming days. Following a press conference on the same day as the dispute was made public, Motaung reassured fans that the club is following the correct procedures. 'I think what's important is that we're in the business of doing things that won't interfere with other clubs,' Motaung said. 'We want to follow certain procedures, and that relates to any other player we're looking at,' she added. Therefore, Chiefs will announce their next player signings as and when they are able to. 'So, we're taking a very professional approach in terms of integrating and bringing the players into the team, so we will make sure we only make announcements when the time is right – so watch this space,' 'But certainly, we can't be engaging on players who are still with teams or still contracted. Once there are any changes, we will make those announcements,' she concluded. Let us know by leaving a comment below, or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 1.
