Explained: Why Kaizer Chiefs signed Asanele Velabayi

Kaizer Chiefs have a new weapon for the Betway Premiership battle, and this one comes with the full blessing of the boss himself.

Naturena has been buzzing with talk of fresh signings, but few announcements have carried the same weight as this. Kaizer Chiefs know when a player is more than just a squad number – and this deal was worth the fight.

The spotlight is now firmly on Asanele Velebayi, the versatile 22-year-old who left Cape Town Spurs under a cloud of contract drama but now wears the famous number 17 jersey in Soweto.
