At the King Zwelithini Stadium on Sunday, Simphiwe Ncineka’s header in the 64th minute handed Amakhosi, who were in need of a win in ten games, their second straight loss. After the game, Msimango, the new signing for this season, rather than Itumeleng Khune, Keagan Dolly, or Yusuf Maart, was one of the topics of discussion.

According to FARPost, the Kaizer Chiefs manager stated, “When you do the analysis of the team, the entire team, it’s still very young.”

“I believe Itu has been with the team for more than 20 years; the other guys are all very young.” If this player is out, that player is out, Keagan is out injured, and Yusuf is injured, then [Msimango] is the one they choose to be the captain.

“Itu has been battling to regain his physical condition and playability. Given is therefore the second best captain since, in my opinion, every club should have eleven captains on the field rather than just one.

“The captain is there to ensure that you kick the ball and throw the coin.

Other than that, I think the field has to include eleven captains. Thus, I have no issues with that,” the Kaizer Chiefs strategist stated in closing.

Amakhosi Target Rui Vitoria

According to reports, there is a front-runner in Kaizer Chiefs’ caching search. The team has declared that a new player would start the following campaign on the bench. Rui Vitoria, a former coach of Egypt and Benfica, is reportedly one of the front-runners. Let’s quickly review his accomplishments.

Rui Vitoria, a Portuguese coach, has become one of Kaizer Chiefs’ top targets for the upcoming campaign, according to FARPost. Amakhosi intends to name a new strategist to take over for Molefi Ntseki and Cavin Johnson, who serves as his temporary successor.
