Kaizer Chiefs could pounce on the uncertainty surrounding the future of one of Orlando Pirates’ favourite sons.
Orlando Pirates boss speaks on Dlamini
Pirates manager Abdeslam Ouaddou has spoken out and addressed why versatile midfield man Jabvelo Dlamini has been out of action in recent weeks. However, local outlets and pundits believe he’s actually signed a pre-contract with Kaizer Chiefs.
“Dlamini is injured at the moment. I don’t know if you know about that. It’s been about three weeks since he had the injury. But he’s coming back, and he’s in rehabilitation,” said Ouaddou.
Masilela calls for Kaizer Chiefs to take advantage
Former Bafana and Kaizer Chiefs left-back stalwart Tsepo Masilela believes that Chiefs would be silly not to try and swoop in to sign 29-year-old schemer Dlamini.
“If I look at the Kaizer Chiefs midfield, I think he brings a different dimension. He can play as a No.10 or as a No.8. On set-pieces, he’s deadly, especially from free-kicks,” said Masilela on the SoccerBeat podcast.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen a player as good as he is. The last one was Shabba (Siphiwe Tshabalala). You need a player who can bail you out with free-kicks, and he’s that kind of player,” added the former Bafana Bafana left-back.
