Kaizer Chiefs defender Zitha Kwinika is confident that Amakhosi can win the Betway Premiership this season.
The Soweto giants finished third in the league last season but were 15 points behind champions Orlando Pirates.
In an effort to close the gap, Chiefs signed Renaldo Leaner, Thabo Moloisane, Adolf Mtasingwa Bitegeko as well as Langelihle Phili and Faiz Abrahams. Khanyisa Mayo’s loan deal from Algerian side CR Belouizdad was made permanent.
Kwinika, who has been Amakhosi’s consistent defender, gave a straightforward answer when asked if Kaizer Chiefs can win the league this season.
“Winning the league, it’s possible.” he said as per FARPost.
