Chiefs fans are excited about the club’s prospects
Three points from a possible three. Suddenly, Fernando da Cruz is Pep Guardiola and Flavio Silva is Erling Haaland.

Wandile Duba came off the bench to score a brace and help the Glamour Boys to a 3-1 win. The performance has fans enthused about the team’s playing style under new boss Fernando Da Cruz.
Latest Kaizer Chiefs rumours
21-year-old Langelihle Phili has put pen to paper on his Kaizer Chiefs contract. The winger joins from Stellies after weeks of speculation around his future. Phili bagged seven goals and an assist in 21 league outings last term. Does he waltz straight into the starting XI? Mfundo Vilakazi has a real opportunity to stake a claim for a regular place in the starting XI with Mdu Shabalala out with an injury, although the 22-year-old could return sooner than expected after breaking his arm. Midfielder Thabo Cele could be on his way out. Coach Fernando Da Cruz has indicated he doesn’t fancy the 29-year-old.
Latest from Europe
19-year-old Ivorian winger Yan Diomandé is on the brink of a €120m (R2,26 billion) move from RB Leipzig to Real Madrid. This could have a knock-on effect for Arsenal’s rumoured interest in Madrid’s Brazilian star Vini Jr. Can the Gunners get a deal done which would make seismic waves around the world of football?
