Kaizer Chiefs need a new goalkeeper, here are some options
Kaizer Chiefs have struggled to feel confident in a number one goalkeeper for a few seasons. What are their options in the market?

The current holder of the gloves, Bruce Bvuma, has only six clean sheets from 19 league appearances. There have been consistent links to Salim Magoola from Richards Bay and Stanley Nwabali at Chippa.

The 29-year-old Burkinabe star has been a standout performer for Tanzanian giants Young Africans. It's understood that Rulani Mokwena played a big role in convincing the talented goal-scoring midfielder to move to Morocco. As it happens, Mokwena will leave his post at the end of the season. Aziz Ki has two goals from 17 caps in a Tanzania jersey. Wydad are hoping to complete a deal for Aziz Ki in time for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup hosted in the United States.
