Kaizer Chiefs want to sign defender Nkanyiso Shinga from Portugal without paying a transfer fee. The South African player will become available after his contract with FC Alverca ends on June 30. Chiefs officials believe they can complete the deal when Shinga becomes a free agent. The club sees him as a strong addition to their defensive options. European football experience makes Shinga an attractive target for the Johannesburg team.
Soccer Laduma sources confirm Chiefs have watched Shinga closely during his time at the Portuguese club. The defender appeared regularly for FC Alverca last season and impressed scouts with his performances. Chiefs need a left-back before they travel to the Netherlands for preseason training. Team management has identified defensive positions as urgent priorities for new signings. Shinga tops their list of potential recruits at his position.
The former KZN Academy player developed his skills through European competition over recent seasons. Chiefs believe his Portuguese league experience will bring fresh tactical knowledge to their squad. Free transfer status allows the club to spend money on other priority areas like striker positions. Management sees this opportunity as perfect timing for squad strengthening. Soccer Laduma contacted Chiefs for official comment but received no response about the potential signing.
