Former Orlando Pirates star Jerry Sikhosana has identified a perfect striker for Nasreddine Nabi to sign for Kaizer Chiefs in the next transfer window.

The Glamour Boys were in the transfer market last summer, seeking to sign a new striker for the Tunisian tactician.

The former AS FAR Rabat mentor stuck with Ashley Du Preez and Ranga Chivaviro but has now been told to sign a striker from fellow Premier Soccer League side.

In an interview with FARPost, Sikhosana claimed Kaizer Chiefs should be looking forward to adding Magesi FC star Wonderboy Makhubu to their squad after his stellar performance since the start of this season.

Makhubu was part of the Magesi FC squad that pulled a surprise by winning the 2024 Carling Knockout Cup and was also one of the goalscorers when they faced Amakhosi in the Betway Premiership.

“Kaizer Chiefs should be looking at a striker like Wonderboy Makhubu,” Sikhosana told FARPost.

The CAF Champions League winner also listed some of Makhubu's qualities that make him feel he would be perfect for the Soweto giants.

“To me, he’s a prolific striker. It’s about scoring goals and his overall contribution as a striker," he added.
"He draws the attention of defences and creates opportunities for his teammates to score. He’s that kind of a player for me.”

Briefly News also reported that Kaizer Chiefs' chances of signing a South African striker just got tougher as another PSL side are interested in moving for the player.

Amakhosi were the first team to show interest in signing the striker, but could miss out on his signing just like they did for Elias Mokwana and Khanyisa Mayo.
