Tweeted Chiefs:

“PSL Awards. Congratulations to the current Toyota Corolla Player That Has It All, Njabulo Blom for being nominated in the Nedbank Cup Most Promising Player of the Tournament category. Good luck!”

Blom has been given the nod for his contribution in the Nedbank Cup as they succumbed to Richards Bay in the first round back in February.

While some of the fans have questioned the former MultiChoice Diski Challenge player’s inclusion, many have congratulated the versatile campaigner.

@KhanyiQondani8 said:

“Congratulations to him but to be honest he doesn't deserve to be nominated.”

@KaraboRithuroi said:

"He doesn’t deserve it and you know it very well.”

@MangenaSakie said:

“Still can't believe why he and Reeve are not in that Olympics squad.”

@Phe_Still said:

"Nedbank? Hebana didn't we play one game lapho.”

@Boitshepo901 said:

“Truth hurts Oksalayo he... but let me tool before I get blocked.”

“No no no, we are stressed about today's game, all Kaizer Chiefs must do now is collect maximum points do at least we finish number eight. Stop this thing of awarding players when there's nothing being delivered.”

@Bongumusa950 said:

“Well done, keep up the good work.”

Apart from their players’ nomination, Chiefs are still under pressure to qualify for the MTN8 and will face Black Leopards on Wednesday afternoon.

Coach Gavin Hunt’s troops currently sit 11th on the log table with 30 points and will be going all-out for a victory at Thohoyandou Stadium.

Meanwhile, Briefly News reported that striker Bernard Parker says he would like to stay with the Soweto giants.

‘Die Hond’s' contract is set to expire at the end of the 2020/21 DStv Premiership season and has reaffirmed his love for the club.

With Amakhosi yet to indicate whether they will retain or release him, the former Bafana Bafana striker says Naturena is where his heart is and that the club is his family.
