Kaizer Chiefs have bolstered their goalkeeping ranks by bringing in Renaldo Leaner. Here’s how they got a deal done to sign him from Sekhukhune.
Kaizer Chiefs go Leaner
Kaizer Chiefs have announced the arrival of 28-year-old goalkeeper Renaldo Leaner from Sekhukhune.
“Kaizer Chiefs have strengthened their goalkeeping department with the signing of renowned shot-stopper Renaldo Leaner,” the note said.
“Born in Cape Town 28 years ago, Leaner arrives at Naturena with a wealth of experience, having impressed last season and earned a number of call-ups to the Bafana Bafana national team.
“We proudly welcome Renaldo to the Khosi Nation!”
Bruce Bvuma has signed a new one-year deal with Kaizer Chiefs. The 31-year-old is the longest-serving player on the club’s books.
Da Cuz to bring defensive discipline to Kaizer Chiefs
Meanwhile, as you’ll know by now, Kaizer Chiefs have hired a new manager. There will be pressure on 53-year-old Frenchman Fernando Da Cruz to instil a proper playing identity at one of African football’s truly massive clubs. Because he likes to focus on tactical discipline and defensive structure, Chiefs fans shouldn’t be expecting their team to go all guns blazing to win games by halftime. After several periods of upheaval and interim managerial stints, fans will be eager to see the club stick with one man for an extended period. He’s got an interesting background, too.
