Kaizer Chiefs have been busy in the current transfer market, luring some top talent to Naturena already.

The club officially announced the acquisition of utility defender Siphesihle Ndlovu from SuperSport United on Saturday morning.

Ndlovu is a former Orlando Pirates player who made 67 appearances for the Buccaneers, as per Transfermarkt!

He joins fellow former Pirates teammates Paseka Mako and Thabiso Monyane at Kaizer Chiefs, who both recently joined the club.

A year ago, the Glamour Boys signed Bongani Sam however the former Buccaneer is yet to make his debut for the club.

And finally, who can forget that club captain Yusuf Maart himself was once upon a time an Orlando Pirates player!

That means that no less than five former Pirates players will form part of Nabi’s squad for next season!
