Any Kaizer Chiefs supporters keen on a new goalkeeper?

KAIZER CHIEFS TO SIGN CHIPPA UNITED GOALKEEPER?

Most of you will remember Amakhosi’s widely reported interest in signing Nwabali from Chippa United before and after Afcon 2024. The 28-year-old surprisingly returned to Chippa United after an eye-catching tournament in Ivory Coast.

Kaizer Chiefs ended up signing Fiacre Ntwari from TS Galaxy. Unfortunately for the Burundian, his career in black and gold has been a challenge, similarly to Brandon Petersen.

According to Soccer Laduma, Amakhosi are back in for Nwabali.

“Chiefs are interested in Nwabali again. Expect the club to push hard in pursuit of his signature this time around,” a source told the outlet.

“The team’s defensive record is worrying for the technical team and management, and they will be using in the next few weeks to work on a possible solution.”

Meanwhile, the likes of Bruce Bvuma, Fiacre Ntwari, Teboho Potsane, Happy Mishiane and Pule Mmodi are expected to get big opportunities to impress coach Nabi.
