REPORTS: AZAM FC OFFER FEISAL SALUM A NEW DEAL

Having worked with Kaizer Chiefs Nasreddine Nabi and his assistant Cedric Kaze at Young Africans in Tanzania, the 26-year-old midfielder is rated as one of the best midfielders in Africa.

According to the Citizen, his current club Azam have offered Solum a new deal that includes a reported salary of R216 000, a figure Kaizer Chiefs can easily match and improve.

“Feisal is an important player for Azam and they don’t want to lose him. They will offer him a new and improved contract that will make him one of the highest paid players in the Tanzanian Premier League,” said the source.

The outlet added to claim: “It is believed that his new salary will be in the region of $12 000 (just over R216 000), but Chiefs can easily match or top this amount so it remains to be seen if Salum will accept this offer or if he will join Amakhosi or Simba in January,” the Citizen concluded.

Meanwhile, Kaizer Chiefs are also linked with two other midfielders.

EXISTING OPTIONS FOR COACH NASREDDINE NABI

For now, coach Nabi has four midfielders at his disposal:

• Njabulo Blom, 24
• Samkelo Zwane, 22
• Yusuf Maart, 29
• Sibongiseni Mthethwa, 30

*Note: Edson Castillo (30) is injured until 2025.
