Inside Chiefs – All Smiles As Keeper Boots Up
The Glamour Boys were quite selective in their transfer dealings this season, snapping up five new players in the shape of Lazarous Kambole, Samir Nurkovic, Kearyn Baccus, James Kotei and Yagan Sasman.
While Kambole, Nurkovic and Baccus have all featured heavily for the Amakhosi in their impressive start to the 2019/20 season, Sasman (who was suspended) and Kotei are yet to play at all despite having made it into the 18-man squad once each.
Now, with the duo having had the international break to get acclimatised under Ernst Middendorp, they were both seen booted up - suggesting that they're fit - at Naturena this week ahead of the encounter with Polokwane City as they both look to pull on the gold and black jersey for the first time.
Kotei hasn't even made the matchday squad for Chiefs since the opening day, while Sasman was back in contention against Cape Town City after serving his suspension from while he was at Ajax Cape Town.
