Kaizer Chiefs fans are growing increasingly concerned about their upcoming showdown with Mamelodi Sundowns, especially as they prepare to face their rivals at Loftus Versfeld. Sundowns have been in remarkable form, now leading the Betway Premiership by a commanding nine points. Their recent 4-1 demolition of Orlando Pirates has left Amakhosi supporters worried about the upcoming clash.
With the match set for March 1, 2025, many Kaizer Chiefs fans are rallying behind the idea of a key signing that could bolster their squad. The name on everyone’s lips is Bafana Bafana legend Thulani Serero, who, after parting ways with his former club, is currently a free agent. Serero has been linked to a move to Cape Town City, but Chiefs fans are hopeful that the club will swoop in to secure his services for the crucial match.
On social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter), many supporters are advocating for the club to bring Serero in, suggesting that pairing him with Thabo Cele in midfield could be the missing piece needed to stand up to Sundowns’ dominance. One fan urged: “Please sign Serero before the Sundowns game to partner Cele. We can’t afford to face them with what we have now … Age is just a number, Pirates signed Makhaula.”
This plea comes as Chiefs look to strengthen their squad for the high-stakes encounter, with many fans voicing their belief that Serero’s experience and talent could give the team the boost they need.
Meanwhile, Chiefs’ coach Nasreddine Nabi remains confident about the club’s future. While acknowledging that they’ve faced challenges in recent years, Nabi is determined to take the team step-by-step toward success. “Step by step, we will come back. We go step by step, with no pressure. We work seriously, and Kaizer Chiefs will return to their glory days,” Nabi shared after their Nedbank Cup victory.
As the pressure mounts ahead of the Sundowns clash, Chiefs fans are eagerly waiting to see if their calls for a Serero signing will be answered.
