Mihlali Mayambela to Kaizer Chiefs? The Bafana Bafana winger has broken his silence on transfer rumours linking him with a move to the Betway Premiership giants.
The talented left-footed attacker from Khayelitsha, currently based in Cyprus, confirmed that talks have taken place — but insists nothing is final yet.
Mayambela’s name surfaced multiple times during the current transfer window, as Kaizer Chiefs look to rebuild under Nasreddine Nabi. Fans have wondered whether the 28-year-old could be part of that project.

The Aris Limassol star has revealed that he made contact with Amakhosi’s Sporting Director, Kaizer Motaung Jr, but a move to Naturena may not be immediate. “There was a conversation,” Mayambela said as per FARPost. “You know the club is moving in a different direction, you can see the amount of signings they’ve made now.

“I’m in a place where I don’t need to move if I don’t have to,” the former Cape Town All Stars attacker explained. “But there is an interest from Kaizer Chiefs and there was talks between me and the Sporting Director. He’s doing his job; he’s trying to build a good squad to bring back the glory days.
“Being at Kaizer Chiefs is my, maybe this guy’s dream [points to his older brother Mark Mayambela]. I don’t know if it will happen, [or rather] will it happen? Maybe I can say yes more than a no — but I don’t know when, it doesn’t only depend on me,” Mayambela concluded.
