Three Kaizer Chiefs players who improved under Nabi

Since arriving at Kaizer Chiefs in July, Nasreddine Nabi has improved several players at the club, but only three have taken their game to the next level.

The likes of Ranga Chivaviro, Gaston Sirino and Bruce Bvuma resurged under the Tunisian mentor. The trio has had disappointing seasons before the arrival of Nabi. Chivaviro and Bvuma were hardly utilised while Sirino was benched at Sundowns before joining Chiefs this season.

Here are three Kaizer Chiefs who improved drastically under Nasreddine Nabi:

Wandile Duba

The 20-year-old forward has played his best football under Nasreddine Nabi. This season, Duba has scored six goals across all competitions, making him Kaizer Chiefs’ top goalscorer this campaign. The speedy winger has been impressive since making his debut for Amakhosi and is one of the club’s best players.

Nabi has improved at least three players at Kaizer Chiefs

Mduduzi Shabalala

Mdu has netted four goals this season and is one of the most impressive players in the team this season. Despite showing good form early in the season, the 21-year-old has not been consistent, forcing Nabi to bench him. All in all, the midfielder has shown growth under the Tunisian coach.

Sibongiseni Mthethwa

‘Ox’ has one of the best three Kaizer Chiefs players who have shown improvement under Nabi. The former Stellenbosch midfielder was benched for half of the season, but with injuries to some of the midfield players, Mthethwa was given a chance and made the most of it. He has played 13 times this season in the Betway Premiership.
