• Kaizer Chiefs are working on bolstering their squad with new quality players ahead of the 2025-26 Premier Soccer League season
• The club has been linked with several top players this summer and has also made some player releases
• Sports journalist Uche Anuma, in an exclusive interview with Briefly News, named three Mamelodi Sundowns players the Glamour Boys could sign without breaking the bank this summer

Kaizer Chiefs are one of the Premier Soccer League sides working on adding more quality players to their squad before the start of the new season.

The Glamour Boys have been linked with several top-quality players this summer, and they have also released several players at the end of the season.

Nkosi, who was part of the Kaizer Chiefs reserve team that won the DStv Diski Challenge League this season, has left the club to join PSL rivals TS Galaxy on a free transfer.

Academy graduate Radebe was also released by the club, which means they need to bring in new players this summer before the 2025-26 season kicks off.

3 Sundowns stars Kaizer Chiefs should sign

Sports journalist Uche Anuma, in an exclusive chat with Briefly News, named three Mamelodi Sundowns stars Kaizer Chiefs can sign without spending big money this summer.

Reports indicate that the Brazilians are set to release nearly 11 players this summer, with some contracts not being renewed.

Miguel Cardoso complained about the large squad at Sundowns when he arrived, and the board will certainly reduce the number of players before the new season starts.

“Kaizer Chiefs can look into the option of bringing in some Sundowns players who become free agents this summer,” he said.

“Sipho Mbule is one player Chiefs should consider. He was on loan at Sekhukhune United for most of the 2024-25 season, and Sundowns have decided not to extend his contract.

“He’s a good midfielder who can add quality to Nasreddine Nabi’s team and is also strong with long-range shots like Teboho Mokoena.

“Kobamelo Kodisang joined Sundowns from European side Moreirense last summer but hasn’t been able to secure a starting place, with Miguel Cardoso preferring Tashreeq Matthews and Artur Sales.

“The last player on the list is Neo Maema. The CHAN Bafana Bafana captain could also leave Sundowns this summer due to reduced playing time.

"Kaizer Chiefs have been linked with the South African midfielder since the January transfer window, and this summer could be the best time to secure the deal.”

Kaizer Chiefs signed Gaston Sirino on a free transfer last summer after his contract ended with Mamelodi Sundowns, and with some of the players listed being considered surplus to requirements for the Brazilians, Amakhosi can do same thing this summer.

Kaizer Chiefs reportedly sign Bafana star from Pirates

Briefly News earlier reported that Kaizer Chiefs are said to have signed a Bafana Bafana star from PSL rivals Orlando Pirates.

The South African international or the Soweto giants are yet to comment on the reports if it's true.
