Kaizer Chiefs are on the verge of finalizing their fifth signing for the upcoming 2024/2025 season, with Angolan defender Miguel Inacio reportedly set to join the Soweto giants. The 28-year-old, currently with Petro de Luanda, is anticipated to strengthen the Amakhosi’s defense under new head coach Nasreddine Nabi.
Inacio’s potential move marks a significant step in Chiefs’ ongoing squad overhaul. Coach Nabi, who is keen on enhancing his squad for his inaugural season at the helm, has already secured the services of four new players: Rushwin Dortley, Gaston Sirino, Fiacre Ntwari, and Bongani Sam. The addition of Inacio is expected to further solidify the team’s defensive line.
Transfer Details
According to sources from FARPost, the transfer fee for Inacio has been agreed upon by both clubs. Inacio is poised to finalize his move to Chiefs within the week after settling on personal terms. He will reunite with former Petro de Luanda teammates, Gilberto and Carlinhos, who have previously signed with Orlando Pirates and Cape Town City, respectively.
The potential signing of Inacio has been met with enthusiasm by local football fans. Social media has been abuzz with positive reactions, with supporters expressing confidence in Nabi’s strategic acquisitions. Dre Chase Wrld commended Nabi’s approach, likening his signing strategy to that of Pep Guardiola, emphasizing quality over high-profile names. Modise Drippaveli also supported the move, noting the importance of addressing defensive issues before pursuing other areas.
As the new season approaches, Kaizer Chiefs’ ambitious recruitment strategy underlines their commitment to enhancing their squad’s competitiveness and achieving success in the upcoming campaign.
