TWO OFFERS ON THE TABLE: LILEPO SET TO CHOOSE ON

Kaizer Chiefs winger Glody Lilepo has two offers on the table* and will decide his next move after reviewing personal terms, iDiski Times can confirm.

Libyan giants Al Ahli Benghazi and Moroccan heavyweights Raja Athletic Club have both made formal approaches for the DR Congo attacker, with Chiefs having accepted proposals from both clubs.

The ball is now in Lilepo’s court. The 28-year-old will weigh up the *personal terms packages* from Al Ahli and Raja before making a final call on his future.

Productive but short spell at Chiefs

Lilepo joined Amakhosi from French side Valenciennes in January 2025 in a reported R9-million deal.

Kasi flavour Thabo Rakhale From the dusty township grounds of the 1950s, eKasi to the modern Betway Premiership, one thing has defined South African football: flair. The tsamaya, the shibobo, the showboating. It is in our DNA. It brings fans to their feet and makes local football unique. But after more than 70 years of flair, a hard question must be asked: What are the actual benefits of showboating beyond harassing opponents and losing in major tournaments? The Real Benefits Of Showboating To be fair, showboating does have value when used correctly: 1. Fan Entertainment:  It is what fills stadiums. A well-executed shibobo is what fans pay to see. 2.

The Other Side: When Flair Becomes A Flaw The problem begins when flair is used without end product. At international level, where effici...

Cedric Kaze Coach of Kaizer Chiefs  Outspoken coach Dan Malesela has launched a scathing attack on former Sekhukhune and Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Cedric Kaze, questioning how he went from being an interpreter to a head coach in the PSL.

Malesela's comments come after Sekhukhune departure after 5 games being in charge as head coach  WHO IS CEDRIC KAZE? - FACT CHECK Contrary to the "interpreter" tag, Cedric Kaze's profile shows extensive coaching experience: - FC Barcelona Academy* ...
