Kaizer Chiefs are monitoring TS Galaxy defender Samukelo Kabini but will face competition from Orlando Pirates.
The 20-year-old, who was a rock at the back in The Rocket’s victory over Mamelodi Sundowns on Tuesday, has had a meteoric rise, solidifying a starting role in a currently top-four team.

While Kaizer Chiefs’ interest in Kabini has been no secret, the Buccaneers recently joined the race.
“He [Kabini] is a player that Pirates are monitoring closely and so far, he has impressed. Don’t rule out the possibility of [Pirates] making an official approach at the end of the seasin,” a source stated.
