Botswana's national team captain, Thatayaone Ditlhokwe, could get an opportunity to turn things around at Kaizer Chiefs in the next few weeks.
The former SuperSport United defender has been linked with a possible exit from Amakhosi and, with the January transfer window looming, it remains to be seen if the Soweto giants will let him go.

Ditlhokwe got his first opportunity to play in an official game for Amakhosi this season when he came on as a second half substitute against Mamelodi Sundowns in the Carling Knockout, following the sending off of Inacio Miguel.
The left-footed defender could get an opportunity to play again in central defence when Amakhosi play their next match towards the end of the month, against Richards Bay.
Ditlhokwe is expected to be part of Botswana's squad for the upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and this will give him an opportunity to get valuable game time on the pitch before returning to Naturena for Amakhosi's next Betway Premiership match.
Chiefs have some time off for the next few weeks to work on some of the problem areas in the team, having gone on a run of three matches without a win in the Premiership.

Coach Nasreddine Nabi has been going through a difficult phase and this period will give him time to further get to know his players and possibly even consider some of the others who have not featured much since he took over as coach before the start of the campaign.
