Kaizer Chiefs youngster attracts European interest!

A Kaizer Chiefs youngster could be set for a move to Europe in the near future, according to the latest.

Chiefs have not had the best of seasons in the current campaign, but Mduduzi Shabalala has recently been impressive. 

Shabalala has scored in two of the last three games for Chiefs, the winner against SuperSport United. He then got a consolation strike against Mamelodi Sundowns through the penalty spot. Even before then, he was a bright spark even though they were not getting any luck in a losing streak. 

European sides tracking Shabalala?

This had signalled a bit of a turning point for Shabalala, with the player being on the peripheries earlier. The playmaker gained the favour of interim coach Cavin Johnson after scoring a brace against Tuks in a warm-up. According to KickOff.com, he has impressed more than just Johnson and is currently being tracked b interested parties in Europe. 

“Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Mduduzi Shabalala remains under observation from Europe with the prospect of his move abroad still alive. Shabalala still fits the profile of what will win him a move but has been encouraged to do more than just enjoy the comforts of being on the books of Chiefs. The youth international was previously wanted by Belgian club KVC Westerlo after impressing during trials, but the deal eventually didn’t happen due to transfer clause-related matters. KickOff.com has gathered that a ‘tracker’ has been planted on Shabalala for him to move to Europe as soon as possible,” wrote the publication. 

Another Chiefs academy product to go abroad?

The interest will only come as a surprise because of the rough period Chiefs find themselves in. Talent-wise, however, there has never been any doubt when it comes to Shabalala. He will now want to finish the season on a high note and give himself a fighting chance to hopefully make that move.
