Kaizer Chiefs coach Stuart Baxter has confirmed that four Amakhosi players have returned to the squad ahead of their DStv Premiership match against Baroka.

The Englishman has come under pressure after winning just one of his last four games in charge, while also dropping out of the Nedbank Cup.

With the league, the only competition left to play for, the club’s leadership have declared they need to qualify for continental football again.

Baxter now confirmed that the likes Njabulo Ngcobo, Sabelo Radebe, Nkosingiphile Ngcobo and Leonard Castro will be back for today’s match.

“We’ve got a couple of players coming back. Njabulo Ngcobo is coming back into the squad,” he told the club’s media department.

“Leonardo Castro is fit enough to be selected again, Samir (Nurkovic) is coming back. Siya (Ngezana) is back now (from suspension).

“Being an away game, you want to make sure you’ve got enough tactical options to defend well, but we’ve also got to have enough attacking players.

“Bibo comes back into the squad and Mshini comes back into the squad, he was ill last week.

“So, we’ve got a few good options with our front players. We can rotate them, we can play with three, we can play with two, so I’m happy with the squad we’ve selected. It gives us lots of options.”

Chiefs don’t have a great away record at Baroka, winning just one of their last six games.
