Kaizer Chiefs have made their first signing under Nasreddine Nabi, securing a deal for South African defender Rushwin Dortley.
The 22-year-old captained the Bafana Bafana team at the 2024 COSAFA Cup held in South Africa but couldn't lead the team to glory.
After an excellent season with Cape Town Spurs, he was one of the most sought-after players in the Premier Soccer League, and European clubs also showed interest.

Chiefs sign Dortley from Cape Town Spurs
According to a report by iDiskiTimes, Cape Town Spurs announced that Dortley would be joining Kaizer Chiefs this summer as the club would be playing in the South African second division league this season.
Amakhosi won the race to sign the promising South African talent ahead of local rivals SuperSport United and Stellenbosch FC.
The Soweto giants also beat off competitions from Major League Soccer teams and clubs in Israel and Denmark, who were all interested in signing the Bafana Bafana defender.
Dortley is a left-footed centre-back who can also play as a left-back, which means the Glamour Boys have successfully replaced Sifiso Hlanti.
