It is no secret that Chiefs have already confirmed the signing of SuperSport United centre back Thatayaone Ditlhokwe, while also being thought to have signed Mduduzi Mdantsane and Given Msimango. In the last two weeks or so, they have also been thought to have added the likes of Venezuelan international midfielder Edson Castillo, who is believed to be ready to join the club and boost their midfield ranks at the end of this month, when his contract with his current team expires.

“Meanwhile, Usuthu pulled out all the stops to win the race for Mmodi’s signature. According to a source close to the club, they offered a salary close to R200 000, which was a better offer than the Chiefs’ one. For Mmodi, it seems like it was not about the numbers as he elected to put pen to paper at Naturena. However, on the other hand, Chiefs had a better signing on-fee than the one of AmaZulu.” Wrote the publication.
