UPDATE | Latest on Etiosa Ighodaro’s Kaizer Chiefs move!

Kaizer Chiefs are currently out in the Netherlands stepping up preparations for the new season under coach Nasreddine Nabi.

Chiefs arrive in Holland having both old and fresh faces for coach Nabi to fine tune before a busy season.

Chiefs have made six signings so far

Last Chiefs confirmed the three acquisitions of Nkanyiso Shinga, Flavio Silva and Ethan Chislett. All three players being formerly overseas-based players prior to joining Amakhosi. The latter on the list, an attacking midfielder had quite a few options to stay abroad, including English League One side Wigan and Scottish Premier League side Motherwell.

Chiefs were not done just yet, they then announced the former Orlando Pirates duo of Paseka Mako and Thabiso Monyane. The two defenders joining was perhaps the worst kept secret from the bunch, having reportedly signed their deals the earliest. They then followed that up with the signing of another former Buccaneer in Siphesihle Ndlovu

Ighodaro was also believed to have joined

But that is not where the transfer activity is expected to stop for Chiefs. One of the players they have been rumoured to have signed is striker Etiosa Ighodaro. With six deals announced, it has been quiet on his front, despite talk of being available as a free agent after leaving Mamelodi Sundowns. 

Now according to Soccer-Laduma, Chiefs are still interested in signing Ighodaro but are waiting on his papers. 

What is the hold up?

“Well, it’s believed that the club (Chiefs) is still interested in signing Mamelodi Sundowns striker Etiosa Ighodaro but they have to look at the foreign quota first. And for now they have five foreign players on their books. But they are waiting for Ighodaro to obtain his PRP which he has qualified for now and that’s why they can’t sign any foreign players now,” said a source to the same publication.
