It seems like Kaizer Chiefs and Dino Ndlovu were never meant to be. The latest report suggests the possibility is now dead in the water.
NO KAIZER CHIEFS FOR DINO NDLOVU
It’s been public knowledge, Amakhosi are in the market for a center forward. According to reports, the 34-year-old Ndlovu does not make financial sense for Kaizer Chiefs due to his salary level and age.
“I can tell you that Chiefs are not interested in Ndlovu. I know the coach wants experience but Ndlovu is not the type of player they’re looking for,” a source told the Citizen.
“The numbers won’t even make sense because the guy was a big earner in Europe so it wouldn’t make sense for Chiefs to pay that much for him at his age. They would rather go for a younger striker with a little bit of experience,” the source added.
