Kaizer Chiefs manager Nasreddine Nabi has opened up about the big plans for the January transfer after the Soweto giants' loss to Mamelodi Sundowns in the Betway Premiership.

"I think my striker, Chivaviro, scored today, and in the previous game, it's okay, but I want the higher level," Nabi said.
"Honestly, the market in Africa is concise. There are four or five good players, but big clubs like Esperance, Al Ahly, and Zamelek have already started the work [with their quality players].
"The market in Africa is not favourable at the moment. I think we don't play in October anymore; we only have November and December, and then the window opens in January.
"I have three months to scout for quality players and players I want seriously. I thank the club committee for giving me the budget."
