Lepasa to Kaizer Chiefs?
Zakhele Lepasa could be the fourth player to trade Pirates for their sworn Soweto rivals in recent seasons after Bongani Sam and new signings Thabiso Monyane and Paseka Mako.
“Lepasa is one of the quality strikers, and he did well for Pirates when he was given a chance,” Tsotetsi told Soccer Laduma.
“He is not a reject from Pirates. He did not get enough game time, and sometimes when you are out, you find that the team gels, and it’s difficult for you to break into the team after being sidelined with an injury.
“But I see he has recovered, and because Chiefs have not been able to get [Khanyisa] Mayo for now, I think Lepasa has something to give,” Tsotetsi added.
“If he can be given a chance at Chiefs, I think he can do well and revive his career.
“Also, it depends on what type of striker coach Nabi would want. We will have to wait and see,” he concluded.
