Take a closer look at some of Chiefs' most ineffective signings in the gallery above
In recent years Chiefs have made a number of signings that just never made a name for themselves at Naturena, with some not getting their break and other simply proving that they weren't at the right level to don the jersey.
The Ones That Didn't Play…
Some of Chiefs' transfers recently came into the club and left without having even made their debut, with Letlhogonolo Mirwa currently still waiting to even make the matchday squad for the club following the 24-year-old joining them at the start of the current campaign.

Others like Enocent Mkhabela, Levy Mokgothu and Abbas Amidu all came and went having held up the shirt in a press conference but never worn it in a competitive fixture for the Glamour Boys during their time there.
The Internationals…
The likes of Godfrey Walusimbi, Camaldine Abraw, Michelle Katsvairo and Sula Matovu have all represented their country prior to or after leaving the Amakhosi and were snapped up with high hopes as the club sought to bolster their ranks and add to their impressive trophy tally that they've built up over the years.

All three of the aforementioned players left having failed to make an impact at Naturena, while other foreigners such as Lewis Macha and Abbas Amidu also joined Chiefs and failed to leave their mark at the Soweto Giants before moving on.
The Potentials…
For all the success that the club has had recently with the likes of Siphosakhe Ntiya-Ntiya, Siyabonga Ngezana, Happy Mashiane and Nkosingiphile Ngcobo, many of their promoted youth products have not met the grade and subsequently gone on to leave the club without getting the chance to do their thing.
Players such as Shandukani Mulovhedzi, Andisiwe Mtsila, Sibongiseni Ngcobo, Luthando Sixhaso, Chris Matombo and others have all gone on to play elsewhere rather than for the club that helped develop them, but the club should be credited for how that has changed in recent years
Who do you think has been Chiefs' worst signing in recent years?
