Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly closely monitoring Congolese striker Basiala Agee, with plans to make a move for him when the transfer window opens in January. The 25-year-old, who currently plays for AS Vita Club in the Democratic Republic of Congo, has impressed Chiefs’ scouts with his goal-scoring ability and physical presence on the field.
Agee has become a standout player in the DRC’s Linafoot league and has caught the attention of several top clubs across Africa. Standing at 6 feet tall, he possesses a combination of pace, power, and technical skill, making him a formidable striker. Chiefs are said to be interested in bolstering their attack, as they’ve struggled at times to convert chances into goals, especially in key competitions like the DStv Premiership and continental tournaments.
Chiefs’ coaching staff, led by Molefi Ntseki, has been looking for a striker who can add more depth to their offensive play. Agee’s strong performances in the CAF Confederation Cup have convinced the club that he could make an immediate impact. His ability to hold up the ball, make intelligent runs, and finish clinically in the box makes him a perfect fit for the Amakhosi’s tactical needs.
While AS Vita Club is aware of Chiefs’ interest and is reportedly open to negotiations in January, the Congolese club could demand a significant fee for their star player. Chiefs will also face competition from other African clubs who have been keeping an eye on Agee’s progress.
As January approaches, Kaizer Chiefs will continue to monitor Agee’s performances, and if the deal goes through, he could become a key addition to the team, strengthening their attacking options for the second half of the season. Fans will be hoping this potential transfer brings a much-needed boost to the squad’s goal-scoring capabilities.
