KAIZER CHIEFS’ ATTACKING WISH LIST FOR JANUARY?
FISTON MAYELE
It’s no secret that Chiefs wanted to sign the prolific Congolese marksman in winter. However, price tags and wage demands got in the way. Could another offer be on the cards in January? By then his deal with Pyramids FC will be one year closer to expiring.
OSWIN APPOLLIS
One of Bafana Bafana’s most exciting new faces is wanted around South Africa and in parts of North Africa. The 23-year-old Polokwane winger has the attributes, body type and player profile to make mincemeat of defenders in the Betway Premiership. Will Chiefs cough up the cash?
MICHAEL OLUNGA
The 30-year-old Kenyan legend has a gobsmacking record in front of goal. Olunga bagged a hat-trick in the first match of this season’s Qatar Stars League. In his entire club career, he’s scored a stunning tally of 190 goals in 252 matches. In his last 62 league matches in Qatar, he’s scored a ludicrous 63 goals. No matter who you’re playing for, a scoring rate of more than a goal per game is absurd.
Olunga has played for Kenyan giants Gor Mahia, Swedish side Djurgardens, Spanish LaLiga’s Girona, Chinese outfit Hengfeng, Kashiwa Reysol from Japan’s J-League and Qatari club Al-Duhail SC. To say he’s Kenya’s greatest is probably an understatement, but perhaps brother duo Victor Wanyama and McDonald Mariga would like a word. Chiefs are considering an ambitious move for the man valued at R180 million, but his wage demands and signing-on fee will likely be prohibitive.
ZAKHELE LEPASA
According to KickOff, Chiefs have been linked with a sensational swoop for Orlando Pirates striker Zakhele Lepasa. The 27-year-old has seven caps for Bafana Bafana but has fallen well out of favour for the national team after losing his place in matchday squads for Pirates. He’s yet to make an appearance in any competition this season after returning from a loan spell with SuperSport last term.
The question remains this obvious to all fans of this great club
