The youngster was an immediate hit with Chiefs fans who cheered him on from the stands as he showed his trickery on the field, but he could not help Amakhosi win the game or at least get a point. But did not stop Makaab from heaping praise on the youngster. The football agent went on to compare Vilakazi to former Chiefs and Orlando Pirates winger Jabu Mahlangu.
”I had the fortune of representing Jabu Mahlangu and I never thought that I would see another player with that innate talent, that unbelievable ability on the ball until I saw Mfundo Vilakazi,”said Makaab during Extra Time on Gagasi FM.“He is probably one of the most exciting young players I have seen in this country for many many years.
Chiefs announced last Wednesday that they had given a contract extension to 18 year-old attacking midfielder, keeping him at the club until 2028.
