Kaizer Chiefs Eye Stellenbosch FC Defender Thabo Moloisane

Kaizer Chiefs, under the stewardship of coach Nasreddine Nabi, continue to revamp their squad, with Stellenbosch FC’s defender Thabo Moloisane reportedly emerging as their latest target. The Siya crew has learned that the Chiefs are closely monitoring the 25-year-old, who has been in fine form for Stellies this season.

Moloisane’s Rise Under Steve Barker

Since joining Stellenbosch FC from Maritzburg United (now Durban City) last year, Moloisane has been a pillar in Steve Barker’s defense. His performances this season have been particularly impressive, having already played 14 matches across all competitions, including four in the CAF Confederation Cup, where he also found the back of the net.

Domestically, Moloisane has showcased his offensive capabilities, scoring a crucial goal against Marumo Gallants in the Betway Premiership last month. His ability to contribute at both ends of the pitch has made him a standout performer in the league.

Chiefs’ Growing Interest

Sources reveal that Moloisane has attracted significant interest from Kaizer Chiefs, who are keen to bolster their defensive lineup. “Chiefs have been monitoring Thabo Moloisane from Stellenbosch, and there is definite interest in his services. A formal approach could be made soon, possibly closer to the end of the season,” a source confirmed.

However, a potential move will depend on Stellenbosch’s willingness to negotiate, especially as the defender’s current contract runs until June 2025, with an option for an additional year.

Other Stellenbosch Players on Chiefs’ Radar

Moloisane is not the first Stellenbosch FC player to catch the attention of the Soweto giants. Previously, Jayden Adams, Fawaaz Basadien, and Sihle Nduli have also been linked with Chiefs, highlighting the club’s focus on recruiting talent from the Cape Winelands.

Building for the Future

As Kaizer Chiefs aim to reclaim their status as title contenders in the Premier Soccer League, adding quality players like Moloisane could be pivotal. Whether Stellenbosch FC agrees to part ways with their defensive stalwart remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Moloisane’s growing reputation is earning him admirers across the league.

For now, all eyes will be on the Soweto giants and their next moves as the transfer window approaches.
