Kaizer Chiefs transfer rumours: Ngcobo, Le Roux, Ranga
Today’s wrap.
Today’s Kaizer Chiefs transfer wrap looks at the uncertain future of Nkosingiphile Ngcobo, Ranga Chivaviro and Luke Le Roux.
Chiefs undecided on Ranga Chivaviro
Kaizer Chiefs have an option to extend Ranga Chivaviro’s contract for another year. However, no decision has been reached yet. The 32-year-old has scored three goals in 16 league outings this term.
“A strong mentality is required to cope with the high expectations set by the fans,” Nasreddine Nabi stated in a potential dig at the former Gallants striker.
“The next few months will be important for him (Chivaviro) to decide his future at the club. It’s true that the contract is nearing an end, and he had hoped to have been on double figures by now with his goals, but it’s not over yet as there are still a lot of games to play until the end of the season,” a SoccerLaduma source confirmed.
Ngcobo will be shipped out by the Kaizer Chiefs technical team
According to SoccerLaduma, the Kaizer Chiefs hierarchy are considering sending Nkosingiphile Ngcobo out on loan next season. Injuries have ravaged the last two seasons for the 25-year-old Amakhosi youth product. He made the step up to senior football in 2017 but has only managed 96 appearances for the club across all competitions in that time. He’s only managed four in 2024-2025.
Le Roux to benefit from an Ngcobo exit?
According to Siseko Gwegwe’s online investigations, 24-year-old Bafana Bafana and Värnamo midfield dynamo Luke Le Roux is a target for Chiefs. However, they’ll likely face competition from Sundowns. Le Roux already has extensive experience in Europe after stints with Sweden and the Netherlands. He’s also got seven caps for Bafana Bafana, earning his debut for South Africa in September 2022. This midfield schemer has the backing of Hugo Broos, but does he want a return to Mzansi?
Will Chiefs regret letting Ngcobo leave if they do so?
