Kaizer Chiefs have strengthened their Betway Premiership squad with the signing of 22-year-old Asanele Velebayi, a move that has been welcomed by club management.
The versatile midfielder joins from Cape Town Spurs, where his exit was marked by contract disputes. He will now don the iconic number 17 jersey for the Soweto giants.
Club Boss Gives Full Backing
Kaizer Motaung Jr., speaking to the club’s official website, expressed his delight at securing the young talent.
“We are happy to finally have Asanele with us,” Motaung Jr. said. “He’s a great addition, and we believe he will bring significant value because he fits perfectly with our playing style and the culture here at Kaizer Chiefs.”
A Player Worth the Wait
Naturena had been buzzing with speculation over new arrivals, but this announcement has been described as one of the most significant of the season. The club believes Velebayi is more than just a squad number — he’s a key figure for their Premiership ambitions.
