Posted on October 8, 2025

Kaizer Chiefs can finally use Asanele Velebayi and Luke Baartman after SAFA Arbitrator Hilton Epstein ruled in favour of the two players and declared them free agents.

Amakhosi signed the duo on a free transfer after Cape Town Spurs were relegated to the amateur ranks, the ABC Motsepe League, at the end of the previous season.

Spurs, however, later challenged their transfers and took the matter to the Premier Soccer League (PSL) Dispute Resolution Chamber, which ruled in favour of Baartman and Velebayi and declared them free agents.

The Urban Warriors appealed the PSL DRC ruling.
