Khune urges Kaizer Chiefs to sign Elias Mokwana

Former Kaizer Chiefs captain Itumeleng Khune has called on the club to consider signing young talent Elias Mokwana. The 27-year-old Bafana Bafana winger is currently a free agent following his departure from Tunisian side Espérance in September. Khune, speaking to SABC Sport, praised Mokwana's skillset, comparing him to former Kaizer Chiefs player Jabu Mahlangu due to his ability to dribble past defenders.

He also highlighted Mokwana's goal-scoring potential and the valuable guidance he could provide to the club's younger players. Mark Haskins, another SABC Soccer Zone analyst, echoed Khune's sentiments, expressing his admiration for Mokwana's abilities and lamenting that the Kaizer Chiefs did not pursue the signing before the player moved abroad.

Haskins specifically mentioned Mokwana's impressive time at Sekhukhune Football Club as a testament to his talent. SABC Sport journalist Mazola Molefe added that Mokwana had reportedly been offered to Kaizer Chiefs following the collapse of a proposed move to Wydad Athletic Club. It remains to be seen whether the club will capitalize on this opportunity.
