Kaizer Chiefs – 10 players linked: Who they are are likely to sign

Posted on August 8, 2025

Kaizer Chiefs have been linked with 10 red-hot players. This is who they likely to sign.

Kaizer Chiefs have been one of the busiest teams in the PSL transfer window.

So far, they have completed 18 deals with 10 new faces and EIGHT departures confirmed. However, more big moves are lined up with these FIVE deals expected to take place at Chiefs before the end of the transfer window.

Let’s take a look at who they likely to sign


FULL LIST: 10 PLAYERS LINKED WITH CHIEFS

  • Stanley Nwabali
  • Feisel Salum
  • Luke Baartman
  • Asanele Velebayi
  • Lebogang Phiri
  • Percy Tau
  • Fiston Mayele
  • Zakhele Lepasa
  • Dzenan Zajmovic
  • Etiosa Ighodaro

First things first, talks have gone quite for Chiefs-linked platers Salum and Phiri.

Meanwhile, despite rumours, Amakhosi have shown no interest in Tau or Lepasa. So, it is merely that – just rumours. Furthermore, Mayele’s brother confirmed that he will not be joining Chiefs or any other side in the PSL. Therefore, the aformentioned players are unlikely to join Chiefs.

REALISTIC PLAYER RECRUITMENTS FOR AMAKHOSI

However, they are reportedly closing in on the signatures of Baartman and Velebayi. Both players have agreed to personal terms with Chiefs. Now, it is a case of receiving legal clearance from Cape Town Spurs to join Amakhosi.

Furthermore, Chiefs have expressed interest in Outbound Sundowns striker, Ighodara. He is currently training alone as he contemplates his next move.

Also, Chiefs have a golden chance to sign Nwabali with Chippa open to letting him go. Finally, Nasreddine Nabi is willing to sign Zajmovic from TS Galaxy.
