Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly eyeing a key signing to address a long-standing issue in their squad – the left-back position. The club has turned its attention to Gift Links, a 26-year-old left-back currently playing for Aarhus in Denmark. This move comes as Chiefs continue their search for a stable solution after the departure of Sifiso Hlanti, who previously held the role. Since then, the club has experimented with multiple options but has struggled to find a permanent fix.
Among the makeshift solutions used so far, central defender Thatayaone Ditlhokwe was deployed in the left-back position, before his unexpected transfer to Libyan club Ittihad. Edmilson Dove, another central defender, was also used in the role with limited success. More recently, 24-year-old Bradley Cross has been given a chance to prove himself, but the young defender is still adapting to the position, and the club continues to search for a reliable solution. The potential signing of Gift Links could finally bring the stability that Kaizer Chiefs need in this crucial area of the pitch as they aim to strengthen their squad for the 2025 season.
