Former Kaizer Chiefs striker Benjamin Reed has urged Amakhosi to sign Orlando Pirates midfielder Sipho Mbule.
The talented playmaker is set to part ways with the Buccaneers after the club opted against renewing his contract.
With just 23 appearances for the Buccaneers all season, Mbule failed to impress and hardly played during the second half of the season.
“In South Africa, we hardly have the talent of players like Sipho Mbule,” Reed said as per KickOff.
“I really don’t know what’s troubling this young man from his God-given talent,” Reed noted.
“Mbule can influence a game on his own. Kaizer Chiefs need a crowd puller like Mbule.
“That’s what we’ve been lacking lately as the culture of the club.”
Reed has likened Mbule to former Amakhosi star Ace Ntsoeleng. He said Mbule can help Chiefs if he gets his act together.
“He is the closest thing to Ace Ntsoelengoe. I believe Mbule can take Chiefs back to where they were, but he needs to change his ways.
“He needs Jesus Christ. That’s the only thing that can help the boy. He needs deliverance; he needs to accept that he alone is not enough.
“He and Kaizer Chiefs can also work. I believe he’s still got a good chance to make a comeback in the national team in the future.”
Mbule urged to join Chiefs
In the past two and a half seasons, Mbule has played for three clubs but his off-the-field incidents have reportedly forced him out of these teams.
