Whether it is a permanent move away from the club, or simply a loan move for the rest of the 2023/24 season, these Kaizer Chiefs players could benefit from moving away from the Glamour Boys in 2024.

Sabelo Radebe
Touted as a bright prospect for the Glamour Boys upon his promotion to the first team in 2021, 'Bibo' featured just three times last season, all as a substitute, which fueled speculation that he is headed for the exit door at the club, albeit on loan. There was talk of a possible move to Stellenbosch FC on loan for the 2023/24 campaign, but indications are that the midfielder is likely to stay on for the time being. Having broken into the club's first team under Stuart Baxter, Radebe was tied down on a long-term deal until June 2026 and could benefit from a move where he will receive much-needed game time before returning to Chiefs with more experience under his belt.
Happy Mashiane
The left-footed star has previously been linked with a move away from Naturena, what with his lack of game time over the last year or two. He has struggled to get into the team, with the technical team preferring to use more experienced players at left back. His agent recently stated that he is happy with his role at Chiefs; however, with just one minute played this season and no signs of it improving, perhaps a loan move, which Mashiane is understood to be open to, could be beneficial to the youngster at this stage.
Dillan Solomons
The Soweto giants beat Royal AM to the signing of Solomons from Swallows. He was recruited on the back of 12 matches as a right back for the Dube Birds. Zwane initially used him regularly and his form was quite mixed to say the least. He ended last season out of favour, with Reeve Frosler and Kwinika were preferred to him. This term has seen Solomons as a back-up player with hardly any minutes on the pitch. Neither Ntseki nor Cavin Johnson seem to trust him defensively in his recently-converted right back role and his outings as a winger have been very underwhelming. Like many others, there wasn't enough shown at his previous club to justify a move to Chiefs and he could benefit from a move away from the club despite his long-term deal with Chiefs.
Siyethemba Sithebe
He has basically been a non-entity after two new central midfielders in Edson Castillo and Mduduzi Mdantsane were signed. It's hard to see him lasting much longer at the club, sadly. He was arguably signed a couple of years too late. He still has the quality to play at a high level; however, Chiefs may not be the place for this to happen.
Bontle Molefe
Soccer Laduma reported during the off-season that Molefe, after putting pen to paper on a new three-year contract with the Glamour Boys, was considering a loan option elsewhere to get regular game-time. Amakhosi's decision to retain Khune's services for another season suggested Molefe would be further down the pecking order. The Soweto giants have two other more established goal minders in Brandon Petersen and Bruce Bvuma, so with Khune around, it meant Molefe, an academy product, would be overlooked. He would be careful to avoid a similar situation to that of former 'keeper Thela Ngobeni (Now Thela) who left it too late to leave Chiefs after spending most of his career on the side-lines at Naturena.
