Before joining Kaizer Chiefs at the start of the Premiership season, striker Ashley Du Preez was on top of his game for Stellenbosch FC, which prompted the move to Naturena.
But since joining the Glamour Boys, the forward has only scored four league goals and three cup goals.

When asked at the Chiefs media day held this week, if the change of environment from Cape Town to Johannesburg has affected his game, Du Preez responded that these things happen in football.
"No, the environment didn't affect me. It hasn't affected my game," the 25-year-old said to journalists at Naturena.
"I think it was the same with my first season at Stellies. But, I am not saying Stellenbosch is a small team but there is pressure playing for a big team like Kaizer Chiefs. Everyone expects you to be on top your game and even when you are on top of your game, sometimes things just don't work out.
"You see how many chances we create but don't score. We just need to score and everyone will be happy. It's not that we are not playing well, it's just that we are not scoring and I am not happy about that. But its not because I moved from Cape Town to here. It's just that such things happen in football and soon it will be over," Du Preez observed.
