Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly interested in signing Michael Olunga, one of Africa's most prolific goal scorers, to bolster their attack.
Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly interested in acquiring one of Africa's most prolific scorers, Michael Olunga. The South African Premier Soccer League ( PSL ) club is currently struggling in sixth place on the table, twelve points behind leaders Mamelodi Sundowns. Olunga, who boasts an impressive record of 194 goals in 261 games, is at the top of coach Arthur Zwane's wish list.
However, Olunga appears reluctant to leave his current club in Qatar, Al-Duhail, where he holds an ambassadorial role promoting the growth of football in Asia.Olunga believes the significant investments in football infrastructure in Qatar have been instrumental in elevating the sport's profile in the region. He cites the success of teams like Jordan, Iraq, and Iran as evidence of the progress made. Despite the Qatari Stars League's standing as one of Asia's top leagues, Olunga emphasizes the need for greater exposure for Qatari players to high-pressure environments, similar to those found in European leagues and the Champions League. Olunga recognizes the responsibility that comes with being a leader and key player, stressing the importance of paving the way for future generations. He remains optimistic about the long-term growth of the Qatari national team, despite acknowledging the challenges ahead. Meanwhile, the potential for Olunga's departure from Al-Duhail has sparked interest from several PSL clubs, with Kaizer Chiefs reportedly making a significant offer for his services. If the move materializes, it would be a major boost for the struggling Soweto giants
