Kaizer Chiefs are gearing up for another busy offseason as Nasreddine Nabi continues his shake-up of the squad. After a series of signings in the last two transfer windows, including the standout arrival of Congolese forward Makabi Lilepo, who earned Man of the Match honors in their recent game against Magesi, the club is looking to further strengthen its ranks.
However, despite these changes, Nabi’s future at the helm is uncertain, as frustration is mounting among club executives. They expected quicker results after his arrival, but the team’s inconsistency on the field is becoming a growing concern. Sources suggest that management is not just looking for good performances—they want tangible results, especially after a series of losses to rivals and top teams in the league.
Currently sitting eighth in the league, Kaizer Chiefs find themselves trailing Orlando Pirates by 11 points and Mamelodi Sundowns by a significant 27 points, which has only added to the pressure.
Feisal Salum on Kaizer Chiefs’ Radar?
One player firmly on Nabi’s radar is Tanzanian international Feisal Salum. Having enjoyed two successful seasons together at Young Africans, where they won back-to-back league titles and the FAT Cup, Salum has become a key target for the Kaizer Chiefs coach. The 27-year-old has recently turned down a contract extension from Azam FC, sparking speculation that he could reunite with Nabi in the upcoming transfer window.
Reports indicate that while Salum enjoys his time at Azam FC, he is eager to explore new opportunities, with a move to Kaizer Chiefs becoming an increasingly likely prospect. However, it’s still early to confirm if the deal will go through, though it remains a serious possibility.
