Chislett aims to energise Chiefs midfield
Daily News
|July 11, 2025
KAIZER Chiefs' new signing Ethan Chislett is hoping to bring a fresh wave of creativity and intensity to the club's midfield as they prepare for what could be a pivotal 2025/26 Premiership season.
With Mamelodi Sundowns chasing an unprecedented ninth consecutive league title, the spotlight will once again fall on who can finally halt their dominance. Chiefs, who have endured two underwhelming seasons, will face growing pressure to deliver immediate results—particularly in the league.
Head coach Nasreddine Nabi enters his second season in charge, boosted by last season's Nedbank Cup triumph.
That success will serve as both a confidence-booster and a springboard as he looks to guide the Glamour Boys back to the summit.
The Soweto giants have been busy in the transfer market, addressing key weaknesses from last season—many of which were exposed through inconsistent performances and frequent squad rotations.
