Zwane Opens Up On Chiefs Transfer Plans

Kaizer Chiefs head coach Arthur Zwane says they won’t enter the market for the sake of signing players in the current January window.

With Chiefs seemingly not interested in adding Pule Mmodi to their squad, after Golden Arrows issued a clear message the player is available for the right price, it’s become evident that there’s other priorities for their transfer strategy this month.

Njabulo Blom’s exit, and their lack of goal scorers has notably plagued Zwane’s new-look side that’s struggled for consistency, in fourth place, 13 points behind league leaders Mamelodi Sundowns after 15 games played.

“Any available quality player, we will always go for them, it depends… and obviously we want to bring in players that can add value, that can deal with pressure,” he said when asked by iDiski Times about their transfer plans.

“When you look at the good players we have right now, we feel we want to give them a fair chance to prove themselves.

“That’s why you can’t be specific when it comes to where we want to beef up, I feel in the middle we still have George, Cole, Nange, the young Zwane has been doing very well, so we still covered yes.

“But if we get another good defensive midfielder, why not, we’ll bring him on board, there’s no doubt about it, even a striker, so we’re just looking for players who can come in and add value in the team.”
