Today’s Kaizer Chiefs news wrap has a hot take from Mike Makaab on the club’s new signing. Meanwhile, Angolan star Depu is still a target.
Agent Makaab is glowing in his praise for Ethan Chislett.

Kaizer Chiefs sign Durban-born playmaker Chislett
Chiefs have wrapped up a two-year deal for South African-born Ethan Chislett. The attacking midfielder can operate in several roles behind the striker and wore the number 10 for Port Vale, who were recently relegated to League Two, the fourth tier of English football. Agent Mike Makaab is a huge fan of his work, praising Chislett for his ability and knack for seeing a pass and scoring goals.
Senior figure Maart signs new terms
29-year-old Yusuf Maart will stay on at Chiefs and play a vital role in their midfield, according to local reports from @UnplayableZA on X. Since arriving from Sekhukhune in July 2022, Maart has been a near ever-present in the Amakhosi engine room. Last season, he made 27 appearances in the league.
Dodgy deal for Kaizer Chiefs?
25-year-old Angolan striker Laurindo Dilson Maria Aurélio, commonly known as Depú, got zero goals and one assist in 24 league games in Serbia last season. Not the most mind-blowing record. He did, however, excel for Angola in a recent Cosafa Cup match against Bafana.
