In other news, former Kaizer Chiefs defender Thomas Sweswe has opened up on the current state of affairs at Naturena.
Despite signing a host of big-name players during recent years, the Glamour Boys have gone nine years without lifting silverware.
According to Sweswe, the club are heading into the right direction under Cavin Johnson; however, there’s one position that needs desperate attention.

“I don’t think the team is doing too badly. Since coach Cavin Johnson took over, the performances have improved, but I still think they need a striker. One that can score goals for a living,” the former Kaizer Chiefs man told SoccerLaduma.
“They have all the other departments well balanced, but the striking department has not been doing very well.
“So I hoped that in January they would look at that department and bring in a top finisher to ease the pressure on the other strikers in the team. That’s what we really needed in January.”
