Players expected to leave Kaizer Chiefs
1. Itumeleng Khune
Kaizer Chiefs bid farewell to the legendary South African goalkeeper in their final home game last season, but the team has yet to confirm his departure.
Khune has been linked with different PSL clubs, but he has decided to continue playing and not retire even if Amakhosi releases him.
2. Edson Castillo
Castillo is also one of the players expected to leave Amakhosi this summer after just one season at the club.
Egyptian giants Zamalek are reportedly interested in signing the Venezuela international, and Chiefs could be tempted to sell him if they receive a staggering R40 million transfer fee, according to the South African.
3. Sabelo Radebe
Radebe is expected to leave the Soweto-based club either for a loan move or a permanent deal, as he might continue to struggle to get game time under Nabi.

The South African midfielder has recently been linked with a move to SuperSport United and could be joining Dolly at the Lucas Moripe Stadium.
4. Christian Saile
The Congolese striker struggled to get goals last season, finding the back of the net just four times in 30 appearances in the DStv Premiership.
Nabi is expected to sign a new striker when he arrives this summer with Lebo Mothiba and Tumisang Orebonye linked with the Glamour Boys.
Chiefs make decision on Cavin Johnson
Sports Brief earlier reported on Kaizer Chiefs’ decision to retain Cavin Johnson despite his poor performance while in charge of the first team.
The former Al Ahly assistant coach failed to nail down Amakhosi’s coaching role after working as a caretaker manager.
