Kaizer Chiefs XI next season with Feisal Salum and Fiston Mayele
Kaizer Chiefs could be adding some impressive star power to their playing roster for next season. Is this new XI worthy of the title? Bvuma; Monyane, Miguel, Dortley, Mako; Mthethwa, Cele; Shabalala, Salum, Lilepo; Mayele. Feisal Salum chipped in with an impressive 19 goals for Azam FC during the 2023-2024 campaign. That followed a glittering spell with Young Africans, where the talented playmaker collected consecutive trebles. A proven winner, Salum has 41 caps and four goals for his nation. The Zanzibar-born star hasn't replicated last season's form for Azam FC this time around. His last goal for the club came back in December 2024, and his side sits third in the Tanzanian Premier League, a massive 16 points adrift of leaders Young Africans. FIVE Amakhosi stars are leaving the club before 2025-2026 Pre-season dates confirmed Along with new defenders Paseka Mako and Thabiso Monyane, Chiefs also want to strengthen their frontline. When will Chiefs show off their new signings? Thabiso Monyane representing Orlando Pirates.
