Kaizer Motaung Junior Happy for Njabulo Blom!

Kaizer Motaung Junior Happy for Njabulo Blom! This follows the transfer of the player to the MLS.

Njabulo Blom has joined American side St. Louis City from Kaizer Chiefs. The club’s sporting director Kaizer Motaung Junior has expressed his delight for their academy graduate.

According to Motaung, this transfer was always in the cards for Blom. This is because of their ongoing contract negotiations which saw no progress.

There was a great disparity between the demands of the player and what the club was willing to offer him.

“It’s a bittersweet departure because I think it’s no secret to the Amakhosi faithful how highly we value Njabulo Blom,” Motaung Junior told the club media.

“He is the epitome of what our Academy has been able to produce over the last couple of years.

“This is part of the plan for us to unearth talent of international standard. More so, we want to ensure that we produce talent that can go out to explore opportunities abroad.

“From a personal point of view, it’s great to see a young man who grew up in the system now being afforded the opportunity to expand his horizons.

“It’s a great story given our past historical link with US football… Dr Kaizer Motaung, our Executive Chairman, having played for Atlanta Chiefs and being named Rookie-of-the-Year in the NASL, opening that territory for us, and the inspiration he got from the American League to come back and form our team here,” Motaung continued.

The club will resume PSL football from next week. Kaizer Motaung Junior Happy for Njabulo Blom!
