Will they go back to an old target with five caps for Bafana Bafana?sources report that Chiefs will reignite their interest in Bafana Bafana midfielder Thabo Cele. The 27-year-old currently plies his trade in Russia. Additional sources claims that Cele is ready to return to South Africa.
“They have been following him for almost three years now and the team’s scouts have been monitoring him and now he is back on Chiefs’ radar. Indications are that they have been talking to his representatives and the talks have been positive. “He will be like a replacement for Siyethemba Sithebe in the defensive midfield position. So it’s a opportunity that could happen in this window period,” said the source.

No one really knows which club he would want to join but at the moment it’s Chiefs who are interested in him and this could give them an advantage to sign him since they are the ones who have been showing interest in him and also inquired about him,” added the second source.Kaizer Chiefs could sign Cele despite competition
