Cole Alexander Grateful to Join Kaizer Chiefs At 32 Years Old! The experienced midfielder has signed a two-year contract with Amakhosi.
Cole Alexander transferred to Kaizer Chiefs from Odisha FC last week. Alexander joined alongside fellow international based South African Keagan Dolly.
He followed former head coach Stuart Baxter to Naturena. Alexander is fully aware that he is into his 30’s, meaning that that doesn’t usually fit the profile of a big team.
He has expressed his gratitude at the opportunity presented to him.
“It’s a huge opportunity for me, it’s a very big deal for me and my family.” He told the Kaizer Chiefs website.
“At my age being 32, dreams can still come true. I am so grateful for this opportunity.”
Just like fellow new teammate Keagan Dolly, Alexander says Chiefs is a team he supported growing up.
“Chiefs was a team I supported growing up. I was always a fan of my local club, Hellenic.
“Kaizer Chiefs was my other club, so to be at Kaizer Chiefs at this stage of my career I can’t say enough how happy I am to be at a prestigious club like Chiefs,” the midfielder added.
There is an opportunity to dominate one of the midfield spots and make it his own. This is due to the lack of quality and quantity in the middle of the park for Chiefs.
“I try not to read too much into the media, but I still see there’s a lot out there. I can promise every Chiefs player and supporter that I am a player who gives my best and nothing less.
“That’s all you can do,” Alexander exclaimed.
He will be hoping to be in the squad for their MTN 8 quarterfinal against Mamelodi Sundowns later this month. Cole Alexander Grateful to Join Kaizer Chiefs At 32 Years Old!
