Kaizer Chiefs are considering selling Ashley du Preez, and that move will directly inform their major incoming business too.
Kaizer Chiefs target Phili
According to several local reports, Stellenbosch winger Langelihle Phili remains near the top of Chiefs’ transfer wish list. The Glamour Boys could put together a player-plus-cash package to lure the 21-year-old to Naturena. Ashley du Preez could be the makeweight. Pacey, diminutive star Phili got seven goals in 27 league outings last term.
Chiefs could also lose Lilepo
Glody Lilepo is another player who could be heading out. The Congolese wide attacker bagged five goals and four assists in 27 league outings last term in a mostly wide attacking role. With news that Khanyisa Mayo is likely to sign permanently after his loan spell, it’s not out of the question that Lilepo could leave Naturena after arriving from Valenciennes in January 2025. Will his sale make the club’s reliance on Flavio Silva even more exaggerated?
Chiefs injury report
Left-back Paseka Mako will miss the start of the new season after fracturing his arm during a pre-season friendly match in Spain. Khanyisa Mayo is also nursing a minor knock. Other than that. however, the club is looking at a clean bill of health.
