PSL Striker Emerges As Latest Target For Chiefs

PSL Striker Emerges As Latest Target For Chiefs

Lungelo Nguse of Golden Arrows goes past Marc van Heerden of Cape Town City during the DStv Premiership 2023/24 game between Cape Town City and Golden Arrows at Cape Town Stadium on 28 April 2024

Golden Arrows striker Lungelo Nguse has become the latest player to be linked with Kaizer Chiefs ahead of the much-anticipated unveiling of signings at the Soweto giants.

Nguse has been touted for greatness following his notable progress at Abafana Bes'thende in one season that he has been with the club.

In the second half of the previous campaign after he re-joined Arrows as the head coach, Steve Komphela was quick to talk about the quality he and the KwaZulu-Natal outfit had in Nguse, suggesting that the burly forward is the player with almost everything needed in a striker – positioning, physicality, finishing, you name them.

Komphela even predicted a future Bafana Bafana call-up for the 25-year-old.

Mbesuma, as Nguse is known in football circles, finished the season with six league goals, joint with Oswin Appollis with that number of strikes, who is another player linked with Chiefs.

Nguse's other goal was in the Nedbank Cup and he was commended for his high work-rate throughout the campaign.

As confirmed by sources in KZN, Nguse has emerged as a target for Amakhosi under newly appointed coach Nasreddine Nabi.

"You can expect denials on this one, but there is interest in the services of Lungelo Nguse from Kaizer Chiefs. It's serious interest because there's been mention of the figures as well, although, Arrows haven't indicated if they will be willing to sell in this transfer window. It could take a little bit of time like the Pule Mmodi one," said the source.

Soccer Laduma contacted Chiefs for comment but no response was received by the time this report was published.
