**Kaizer Chiefs Set to Release two players to Make Room for New Signings**
Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly planning a squad overhaul ahead of the upcoming season, with midfield maestro **Nkosingiphile Ngcobo** and defender **Given Msimango** believed to be among the players set for an exit. According to sources, the club is looking to free up space and resources to bring in higher-quality signings as they aim to compete for major trophies next season.
### **Nkosingiphile Ngcobo – A Talented Midfielder on the Way Out?**
The 24-year-old attacking midfielder has been with Chiefs since his youth days but has struggled to cement a regular starting role in recent seasons.
**2023/24 Season Stats:**
– **Appearances:** 15 (all competitions)
– **Goals:** 1
– **Assists:** 2
– **Key Passes per Game:** 1.3
– **Dribbles per Game:** 1.1
Despite showing flashes of brilliance, Ngcobo has been inconsistent, and with the club targeting more experienced midfielders, his departure seems likely.
### **Given Msimango – A Surprising Exit?**
Msimango, who joined Chiefs at the start of the 2023/24 season from TS Galaxy, was expected to solidify the defense. However, despite a decent start, his form dipped, and he lost his place in the starting lineup.
**2023/24 Season Stats:**
– **Appearances:** 18 (all competitions)
– **Clean Sheets:** 6
– **Tackles per Game:** 1.8
– **Interceptions per Game:** 1.5
– **Clearances per Game:** 3.2
While Msimango showed promise, Chiefs may be looking for a more dominant center-back to partner **Thatayaone Ditlhokwe** next season.
### **What This Means for Chiefs**
Releasing Ngcobo and Msimango could free up wages and squad space for new signings. The club has been linked with several players, including a high-profile striker and a commanding midfielder.
Fans will be hoping that these changes lead to a more competitive squad capable of challenging Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates for silverware.
