Kaizer Chiefs legend wants Sundowns right-back at Naturena

Former Kaizer Chiefs captain Patrick Mabedi has urged Amakhosi to sign Khuliso Mudau from Mamelodi Sundowns.

The lanky defender has not penned a new deal with Masandawana, which could open a door for other PSL clubs. Mudau is highly regarded as one of the best right-backs in Africa, having played in the CAF Champions League final and Africa Cup of Nations semi-finals.

Mabedi feels Kaizer Chiefs would benefit if they could sign the Bafana Bafana star. The former Malawi international coached Mudau when he coached at Black Leopards seven years ago.

“He is a very good player. If Chiefs sign him they could have found a missing link in not only their defence but the whole team. You know when I coached him at Black Leopards we used to use him either as a right back, right winger or even a central midfielder. That’s how good he is. So, this could be the biggest move for Chiefs in recent times. Personally, I would encourage them to go for him,” Mabedi told Soccer Laduma.

The Amakhosi legend says Mudau is a player who could help Chiefs build from the back as he is good playing with the ball at his feet.

“You know he comes from Sundowns who like playing the ball around. He is good in that and Chiefs need such a player who can help them build from the back and link up with their attackers. This could really be a good move for Chiefs (if they attempt to sign him),” the former Kaizer Chiefs assistant coach stated.

Mudau has attracted offers from North Africa so a move to Chiefs is very unlikely at this stage, given the player is in his prime.
