Transfer News: Jonathan Sowah to Kaizer Chiefs?
One thing is certain: Kaizer Chiefs will have a new center moving forward this month.
STRIKER OFFERED TO KAIZER CHIEFS
According to Soccer Laduma, the Glamour Boys have been offered the 26-year-old Sowah, who scored 19 goals in 35 games for Medeama in Ghana before moving to Al-Nasr in Libya this season. The offer comes due to the continuing struggles of Ranga Chivaviro, Ashley du Preez and the financial challenges of signing players targets like Fiston Mayele and Michael Olunga.
55-YEAR BIRTHDAY
Meanwhile, the club celebrated its birthday on Monday:
“Today, 7 January 2025, marks a significant milestone in the history of our beloved Kaizer Chiefs as we celebrate the 55th anniversary of our founding in Phefeni, Orlando West in Soweto. It invokes a sense of deep satisfaction and immense pride as we reflect the journey that has brought us to this point – an odyssey filled with passion, patience, dedication, and resilience.
“When I, along with my fellow founding fathers, established Kaizer Chiefs in 1970 following the formation of Kaizer XI, we envisioned more than just a football club; we sought to create a beacon of hope and unity for our community during the difficult times of apartheid in South Africa. From those modest beginnings in Soweto, we aspired to build a legacy that would transcend football – a heritage rooted in the rich culture and spirit of our people. The dream was to provide a platform that would empower and inspire not only players but also our community and supporters, whom we regard as the heart and soul of the Club.
“Over the years, Kaizer Chiefs has evolved into more than just a team; we have become a family of millions. Our supporters have remained steadfastly loyal through thick and thin, celebrating our victories and supporting us in challenging times. To the loyal Amakhosi faithful who have been with us since the beginning, and those who joined our journey later, your unwavering commitment and passion have been instrumental in making Amakhosi the most supported Club in South Africa and one of the biggest in Africa. You are the ones who turn our home and away games into a sea of Gold & Black, creating an atmosphere that few Clubs can rival. This is the reason our mantra for this season is Always Home. This is because we feel at home wherever we play.
“As part of our 55th birthday celebration, we invite all our supporters to join us at FNB Stadium on Wednesday evening when the team takes on Stellenbosch FC in the Betway Premiership. It is a fitting occasion to honour our rich history together, and we encourage everyone to don their Gold & Black colours with pride and come together to celebrate this important milestone with us”. – The full statement is available on the club’s website.
