Following the signing of Inacio Miguel, Soccer Laduma looks at how Kaizer Chiefs could line-up when the Premiership gets underway next month.
Amakhosi have been working behind the scenes to ensure they have a solid squad for head coach Nasreddine Nabi and they have put a lot of focus into bolstering their defence for the new campaign.

The Soweto giants have signed goalkeeper Fiacre Ntwari, and defenders Rushwin Dortley, Bongani Sam and Miguel to ensure they have enough in their rearguard to challenge for honours.
With Brandon Petersen out recovering from a finger injury, Ntwari looks set to be the man who starts in goal for Amakhosi, ahead of Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Bruce Bvuma. It's understood that Nabi gave the thumbs up for the signing of Ntwari and he could be the man given an opportunity to solidify his spot as number one once the new season kicks off.
Reeve Frosler is believed to be favoured as the first option at right back, with Msimango and Miguel likely to form the central defensive partnership. Dortley is an option for the new head coach at left back, especially with Sam and Edmilson Dove recovering from injuries.

Yusuf Maart and Samkelo Zwane are the possible central midfield combination, with Mduduzi Shabalala expected to play in a more attacking position in a three-man midfield.
Ranga Chivaviro, Mfundo Vilakazi and new signing Gaston Sirino could be the favoured trio upfront.
