Kaizer Chiefs Prepare for January Exits: 3 Players Reportedly Leaving

Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly preparing for a busy January transfer window, with three players expected to leave the club. According to reports, head coach Nasreddine Nabi has identified Aden McCarthy, Christian Saile, and George Matlou as players who no longer fit into his plans for the current season. As Chiefs look to strengthen their squad for the second half of the campaign, these players may face uncertain futures at Naturena.

Nasreddine Nabi’s Squad Reshuffle

Kaizer Chiefs had a promising start to the season, winning their first two matches in the Premier Soccer League. However, their form has since dipped, with the club struggling in both league and cup competitions. This has prompted coach Nasreddine Nabi to reassess his squad and make difficult decisions regarding certain players.

While Nabi had requested signings in the summer, the club was unable to meet those demands, which has led to some frustration. Now, as Chiefs head into the January transfer window, it appears that Nabi is making preparations to refresh the squad, and three players are reportedly set to be shown the exit doors.

Christian Saile’s Time at Chiefs Comes to an End?

Christian Saile, who began the season as a regular under Nabi, is one of the players expected to leave. Saile’s inclusion earlier in the season was largely due to Nabi not being able to secure the new forwards he requested. However, with several new attacking options linked to the club, Saile may find himself surplus to requirements in January.

If Saile does stay at Chiefs, he could be relegated to a bench role, which would further limit his chances of regular first-team football. With fresh talent possibly arriving, Saile’s time at the club could soon come to an end.

Aden McCarthy and George Matlou’s Limited Roles

Aden McCarthy and George Matlou have faced even less playing time under Nabi. McCarthy, who has been on the fringes of the first team, has yet to feature this season, leaving his future at the club in doubt. Matlou, on the other hand, has spent a significant amount of time on the sidelines due to injury but is now back in training.

Despite his return to fitness, Matlou may not feature in Nabi’s plans for the remainder of the season. With the team reportedly looking to bolster their midfield, the South African international may be sent out on loan or transferred, especially if Nabi doesn’t see a role for him in the squad.

New Faces on the Horizon

As the club looks to reshape the squad, Kaizer Chiefs have reportedly brought in three new players for training with the first-team squad. These players were spotted ahead of the Premier Soccer League return, and two of them were even included on the bench during the club’s 2-0 victory over Lamontville Golden Arrows in the Home of Legends Cup semifinals.

The potential signings suggest that Chiefs are preparing to make a number of changes during the upcoming transfer window. With several forwards and midfielders linked to the club, it is clear that Nabi is aiming to strengthen his squad and put his tactical stamp on the team.

What’s Next for the Departing Trio?

As Chiefs begin to make their January plans, the futures of McCarthy, Saile, and Matlou look increasingly uncertain. If the trio does leave, they could find new opportunities elsewhere, or they may remain with the club but accept lesser roles. For now, the focus is on improving the squad, with Nabi reportedly prioritizing new signings to help turn the team’s fortunes around in the second half of the season.
