Kaizer Chiefs have decided to let go of Venezuelan midfielder Edson Castillo ahead of the new season, as the player does not feature in coach Nasreddine Nabi’s future plans.
The 30-year-old, who joined Amakhosi in 2022, showed flashes of promise but ultimately failed to cement a consistent role in the team. His departure marks another step in Nabi’s squad overhaul as he reshapes the team for the upcoming campaign.
Castillo’s exit comes amid broader changes at Naturena, with Chiefs expected to make several more moves in the transfer market as they look to rebuild under their new Tunisian mentor. Fans will be hoping these changes can help end the club’s long trophy drought.
The Venezuelan international’s next destination remains unclear, though he could attract interest from other DStv Premiership sides or clubs abroad. His release follows recent exits of other players as Nabi puts his stamp on the squad.
