Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly setting their sights on strengthening their defensive line for the upcoming season, with a potential transfer target already in mind.
The club has turned its attention to Thabo Moloisane, a standout defender from Stellenbosch FC, as part of their ongoing efforts to bolster their squad under coach Nasreddine Nabi. After closely observing his impressive performances this season, Chiefs are reportedly considering a move for the 25-year-old centre-back.
Moloisane: A Rising Star in Defence
Thabo Moloisane, who made the move from Maritzburg United to Stellenbosch FC last year, has quickly become a key player in his team’s defensive setup. His impressive form has caught the attention of several top clubs, including Chiefs. Moloisane has featured in 14 matches so far this season, showcasing his versatility in various competitions, including the CAF Confederation Cup, where he even found the back of the net in four appearances.

A source close to the situation confirmed, “Chiefs have been tracking Thabo Moloisane and are interested in bringing him to the club. While it’s still early, a formal approach is expected to be made soon.” This interest further underscores Moloisane’s growing reputation in the Premier Soccer League (PSL), with his ability to perform consistently at a high level making him an attractive prospect for top-tier clubs.
Moloisane’s Versatility and Impact on the Field
Moloisane’s contributions are not limited to defending. The 25-year-old has also played a crucial role in his team’s attacking efforts, scoring an important goal against Marumo Gallants in the Betway Premiership. His all-around performances have solidified his reputation as a reliable and dynamic player.
Potential Move to Kaizer Chiefs
While the interest in Moloisane is still in the early stages, sources suggest that Kaizer Chiefs are likely to approach Stellenbosch FC about signing the defender as the season draws to a close. “He is a quality player who would thrive at any top PSL club,” an insider revealed, emphasizing Moloisane’s potential as a future star at Chiefs.
Moloisane’s current contract with Stellenbosch FC is set to expire in June next year, though the club holds the option to extend it for another year. This gives Chiefs a limited timeframe to secure a deal for the sought-after defender.
As Kaizer Chiefs look to strengthen their defence, Moloisane could become an integral part of their plans for the future. Fans can expect further updates on this potential transfer as the season progresses.
