Kaizer Chiefs wants to sign Lobi Stars goalkeeper Japhet Opubo after their poor defensive record last season. The South African club allowed the second most goals in their top division during the 2024/25 campaign. Chiefs officials have made finding a new goalkeeper their main priority for the transfer window. Local South African media reports suggest Opubo has caught the attention of club scouts.

The 30-year-old Nigerian keeper brings extensive experience from his domestic league career. Opubo helped Rangers win the Nigerian Premier Football League championship during the 2023/24 season. His resume shows stints with multiple Nigerian clubs such as Bayelsa United, Heartland and Sunshine Stars. The goalkeeper ranks among the most seasoned shot-stoppers competing in Nigeria's top flight.

Chiefs supporters hope new signings can fix their defensive problems from last season. The club's poor goalkeeping contributed to their disappointing league finish. Opubo could provide the stability Chiefs needs between the posts. His championship experience with Rangers demonstrates his ability to perform under pressure situations.
