Kaizer Chiefs are still vying for Nedbank Cup glory this season, and there are key matchups on the horizon. Here’s what’s ahead for Nasreddine Nabi’s squad.

Feisal Salum to Chiefs? Midfield maestro Feisal Salum has confirmed he will not renew his contract with Azam FC. The Tanzanian playmaker has been heavily linked to a move to Kaizer Chiefs.
“Feisal Salum has made his decision and informed the club that he will not extend his contract,” reported Africafoot.com. “He’s enjoying his time at Azam, but he’s seeking new challenges at the end of the season.”
Though it’s still uncertain, a move to Kaizer Chiefs appears to be a serious possibility.
Chiefs Love the Winelands Despite recent struggles, Chiefs seem to have a knack for winning at Stellenbosch’s stadium. In their most recent 1-0 win against FC Stellenbosch, new signing Glody Lilepo netted the only goal. Lilepo, who was also crucial in the 2-2 draw with AmaZulu, is quickly becoming a fan favorite. Chiefs have now won their last three consecutive visits to Stellenbosch, and fans are starting to think, “Why can’t we play here every week?”
