Kaizer Chiefs legend Mandla Masango has encouraged his former club to consider signing Bongani Zungu, who is currently a free agent. Masango, who enjoyed a successful stint with Chiefs, shared his thoughts on the club’s need for an experienced player to support their young squad. “The youngsters are doing well, but they need support,” Masango commented, emphasizing that Chiefs’ youthful talents could benefit significantly from the guidance and presence of a seasoned professional like Zungu.
Zungu, a 31-year-old midfielder, has had an impressive career playing both domestically and internationally, having represented Mamelodi Sundowns, Vitoria Guimaraes in Portugal, and Amiens in France. Known for his ball control and playmaking abilities, he could add depth and stability to Chiefs’ midfield. Chiefs are currently undergoing a rebuilding phase, focusing on nurturing young talent. Masango believes that introducing an experienced player into the mix would not only strengthen the team but also provide valuable mentorship for the developing players.
While Kaizer Chiefs have shown signs of improvement, they are yet to reach the top-tier consistency needed to challenge for league titles. Masango suggested that Zungu’s availability offers Chiefs an ideal opportunity to inject experience into their lineup without waiting for the next transfer window. Zungu’s skills, along with his familiarity with the South African football landscape, make him a strategic fit for Amakhosi.
Chiefs fans have reacted with excitement to Masango’s remarks, hoping the club management takes the advice seriously. Whether Kaizer Chiefs will take action on Masango’s suggestion remains to be seen, but the potential signing of Bongani Zungu could signal a bold step in Chiefs’ pursuit of reclaiming their position as a dominant force in South African football.
