Junior – I Wanted Chiefs To Sign These Two Stars

Former Kaizer Chiefs winger Junior Khanye says he would have liked to see his former side strengthen the team in the January transfer window with the signings of Puso Dithejane and Thabo Moloisane.

Dithejane has joined MLS side Chicago Fire this month, while Moloisane, who has long been linked with Amakhosi, remains at Stellenbosch FC.

Chiefs are currently third on the league log with 27 points in 14 matches, just two points behind leaders Mamelodi Sundowns in pole position.

Khanye believes Chiefs have a few key areas to look at but having someone who can help their midfield and attackers should have been a priority, if they are serious about challenging for the league.

“I was looking at Chiefs to sign Puso Dithejane and [Thabo] Moloisane, there were rumours and I was expecting them to sign him and also a proper goalkeeper,” said Khanye on iDiski TV.

“I was also expecting they’d sign someone in the number 10 position. Puso can play as a number 10 as well, he can play left or right wing. I had expectations and I was looking at them strengthening wing-forwards and not rely on the likes of [Pule] Mmodi because it’s not working.

“Yes the likes of [Glody] Lilepo are good but there is nothing going forward and if they wanted to compete they’d bring in players like Puso and Moloisane.

“I know Sundowns won’t give them [Siphelele] Mkhulise, who they are not even using, I’m saying break the bank to get [Lebohang] Maboe a partner.”
