Kaizer Chiefs rising star Mduduzi Shabalala has been praised by his former youth coach, Sifiso Nxumalo, for his exceptional progress and potential. Shabalala, who broke into the Chiefs’ first team last season, has become a regular under the guidance of new head coach Nasreddine Nabi. At just 20 years old, the versatile attacker has impressed fans and coaches alike with his performances in the Premier Soccer League (PSL), netting three goals this season.
Nxumalo highlighted Shabalala’s ability to adapt across multiple attacking positions, a trait that has made him a valuable asset for Chiefs. His performances have not only drawn admiration from local football fans, who foresee a potential move to Europe, but also caught the attention of Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos, who has been monitoring the youngster’s progress closely.
Shabalala’s determination and skill have solidified his place as one of South Africa’s most exciting football talents. With his continued development, many believe he has the potential to elevate his career further and represent South Africa on the international stage.
