Kaizer Chiefs Make Contact With Former Academy Graduate Puso Dithejane

Kaizer Chiefs have made direct contact with their former player Puso Dithejane as they explore the possibility of bringing him back to Naturena. The revelation was made by TS Galaxy chairman Tim Sukazi during an interview on SABC radio station Ikwekwezi FM. Chiefs management have reportedly intensified their interest after Dithejane’s rapid rise in the PSL. The move signals a possible rethink from the Soweto giants as they look to strengthen their squad with proven local talent. Dithejane is currently one of the standout performers at TS Galaxy.
Puso Dithejane’s journey has been closely followed by football fans across the country. The talented defender left Kaizer Chiefs under controversial circumstances after being asked to assist as a ball boy during first team matches. That decision marked a turning point in his career. At TS Galaxy, Dithejane rebuilt his confidence and developed into a consistent top-flight player. His growth has made him one of the most sought-after young defenders in the league.
Speaking openly on Ikwekwezi FM, Sukazi confirmed that senior Chiefs officials have reached out directly to Dithejane and his family. He revealed that Dithejane showed him several missed calls from Kaizer Motaung Jr., Chiefs scout Tera Maliwa, and head of youth development Vela Khumalo. Sukazi also stated that Dithejane’s father received a call from Bobby Motaung. These contacts suggest a coordinated effort from Chiefs to reopen talks with their former academy graduate.
Sukazi explained that Kaizer Chiefs are still in the process of trying to convince the player. He said Bobby Motaung contacted Dithejane’s father, who then advised him to speak directly to TS Galaxy management. Sukazi made it clear that Galaxy have no issue with clubs approaching players, as long as the process remains respectful. He stressed that Dithejane remains a TS Galaxy player at this stage.
TS Galaxy are open to negotiations if Kaizer Chiefs make a formal approach. Sukazi confirmed that the club would be willing to listen to what Chiefs put on the table. He emphasized that any potential transfer would follow proper discussions between the two clubs. For now, Dithejane continues to focus on his football at Galaxy while interest around him grows.
For Kaizer Chiefs, the possible return of Puso Dithejane represents more than just a transfer. It reflects an attempt to reclaim a talent that once slipped through their fingers. Whether the move materializes will depend on negotiations and the player’s own ambitions. One thing is certain. Puso Dithejane’s rise has forced Chiefs to take notice, and the next few weeks could be decisive for his future.
