Coach of the Chiefs affirms that a ‘new’ player will be presented with a significant opportunity

Kaizer Chiefs suffered a disheartening 1-0 loss to Sekhukhune last weekend. Despite being only two points behind third-placed Richards Bay, Amakhosi are now 16 points behind league leaders Mamelodi Sundowns.

On Friday evening at 19:30, though, the Chiefs are anticipated to defeat the 12th-ranked AmaZulu in a convincing fashion.

However, the visitors will be missing three prominent players: Keagan Dolly, Khama Billiat, and S’fiso Hlanti, who are all out due to injury or suspension, respectively.

Additionally, read about the three Chiefs players who will miss the AmaZulu Clash.

Arthur Zwane, the head coach of the Chiefs, made some intriguing pre-match remarks via the club’s media department in anticipation of the forthcoming match.

Considering the opponent’s squad, we will face little opposition. As a result of S’fiso Hlanti’s suspension, a player who has been out of action for a considerable amount of time will have another chance to prove his worth and boost his confidence.

“Football is a game of chances, and here is a chance for another player. Healthy competition exists. If his replacement does well, it motivates Hlanti to work harder and utilize his experience. We expect the person who will start in that position to do well for the team and for himself.”

Zwane remarked that there were also other noteworthy injury recoveries.

This season has been unlucky for us in terms of the number of injuries. This weekend, Cole (Alexander), Khama (Billiet), and Nange (Phathutshedzo) began training. We continue to prepare players for upcoming games. We have equally talented young players who can seize this opportunity. We will select the eleven best available players who are capable of representing the club.”
