Chiefs Pushing For Tanzanian Defender?

Chiefs Pushing For Tanzanian Defender?

With the PSL transfer window drawing closer to the end, the Siya crew understands Kaizer Chiefs could be interested in a Tanzanian defender in order to further strengthen their backline.

Siya sources have indicated that Amakhosi may have contacted Simba SC for the services of defender Mohamed Hussein.

As previously reported by the Siya crew, the Glamour Boys could have enquired about the left back before.

Now, sources have added that the club may be trying harder to bring the Tanzania national team defender to South Africa.

"The team has noticed how they have started the season and they feel they still need an experienced left back in case there are injuries and suspensions," said the Siya source.

"You see what happens when (Sifiso) Hlanti and (Edmilson) Dove were out? They used (Reeve) Frosler on the left. That's why they are reconsidering the Tanzanian defender.

"They wanted him at the start of the off season but they put it on hold because they thought they will work with Hlanti and Happy Mashiane in that position and have Dove as cover.

"But now the technical team needs another experienced defender like Mohamed Hussein," the source stated to the Siya crew.

Another source added that the two clubs could have used the FIFA break to look into the potential deal.

"The thing is Hussein was with the Tanzania national team in Algeria for the Afcon qualifiers but I believe that did not disturb the intention of talks between the two clubs," said the other Siya source.

"Simba are waiting to hear from Chiefs as they don't want to stand in the way of the player. After all, this is the right time for him to move.

"He is 26-years-old and a national team regular," added the source. 

Soccer Laduma contacted both clubs for a comment but no response was received while preparing this story.
