Chiefs chasing Mphela?
Kaizer Chiefs may make a move for Bafana
Bafana striker Katlego Mphela in the next transfer window.
That is according to a report in The
Citizen newspaper on Friday, which suggest that had he been fit, Mphela might
already be an AmaKhosi player.
The 27-year-old is currently on the
sidelines with a knee injury and is not expected back in action before October
at least.
He had surgery on the knee after appearing
for Bafana Bafana in the June World Cup qualifiers against Ethiopia and
Botswana, where he took his tally to 23 goals in 47 internationals for South
Africa.
When fit he is arguably the most
complete striker in the PSL and is seen as a possible solution to Chiefs’
bluntness in attack, though that has improved already this season.
AmaKhosi were amongst the lowest scorers
in the top-flight in the last campaign, but so far this year have netted nine
times in three games.
They might come back in for the player
in the next transfer window once he has proven his fitness, though the report
also suggests that he is hoping to use the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations as a
springboard for a move to Europe, given the global prominence the tournament will
have.
Mr editor! how true is this article? I would love to see him wearing black and gold but I doubt if sundows will ever release him for a PSL team.
