Samir Nurkovic says that he is not concerned by his goal ratio slowing down in the second half of the 2019-20 season‚ just so long as Kaizer Chiefs can go on to win the Absa Premiership.
Nurkovic’s goals‚ as the forceful‚ physical striker arrived from the Slovakian second division and set the Premiership alight at the start of the season‚ played a big part in Chiefs unexpectedly surging into a commanding lead by December.
Chiefs‚ who once enjoyed a 13-point gap in 2019‚ had just a four-point lead over second-placed defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns‚ who had a game in hand‚ when the Premier Soccer League suspended matches due to the coronavirus on March 16. “If I see that a teammate is in a better position then I will pass the ball to them and not be selfish. The ultimate goal is to achieve three points at the end.”
“Yes‚ it will be my first league title‚” Nurkovic‚ who has played his career for a variety of Slovakian teams‚ confirmed.
