After another underwhelming campaign from Kaizer Chiefs that saw them finish ninth in the Betway Premiership, as many as five players could already be heading out the door at the Soweto Giants.
Though Chiefs did win their first piece of silverware in a decade when they beat Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup final last month, it did not hide the fact that the AmaKhosi finished outside the top eight for a second season in a row.
Since the end of the season, the rumour mills have begun to swirl about high-profile transfers with Percy Tau even linked with a possible move to Chiefs.
According to iDiski Times though, five players could have already said goodbye to Chiefs, which would add to the big name exit of Ranga Chivaviro earlier this month.
George Matlou
The 26-year-old George Matlou will see his contract at Chiefs expire at the end of June. It’s believed that Sekhukune United may be interested in signing the midfielder. It may come as quite a shock to Chiefs fans, as Matlou was a big hit after the Nedbank Cup final as he refused to take off his match kit for several days after the encounter.
Fiacre Ntwari
The 25-year-old goalkeeper has not seen much game time for Kaizer Chiefs this season. The Rwandan had begun the previous season as the Chiefs number one shotstopper, but has fallen to third in the pecking order behind Bruce Bvuma and Brandon Petersen.
Samkelo Zwane
With Chiefs already said to be looking to boost their midfield, the 23-year-old Zwane also appears to be on his way out with a loan deal believed to be on the table.
Tebogo Potsane
At 31, the winger is also another player said to be on his way out of Naturena on a loan deal. He did not feature much in this recently concluded campaign, although there were reports that it was mostly due to injury. Given his age though, Chiefs could be forgiven for looking to younger charges.
Zitha Kwinika
Another Chiefs player on the wrong side of 30, the 31-year-old defender Zitha Kwinika was not favoured much this campaign under coach Nasreddine Nabi. With just one appearance as a substitute this season, there seems little keeping him at Chiefs.
