Kaizer Chiefs Sign Flavio Silva! Amakhosi Bolster Squad for New Season
Kaizer Chiefs fans, get excited! The Glamour Boys are making moves in the transfer market, securing the signature of Portuguese striker Flavio Silva from Indonesian club Persebaya Surabaya. This signing is part of a major squad overhaul as Chiefs prepare for a competitive 2025/26 season.
Silva's Arrival Confirmed
The news comes after weeks of speculation linking Silva with a move to Naturena. Persebaya Surabaya even released a statement thanking Silva for his time with the club and wishing him well in his new career. The 29-year-old striker has been given the green light to start his Chiefs journey.
Impressive Track Record in Indonesia
Silva arrives at Kaizer Chiefs with a proven goal-scoring record. He scored an impressive 23 goals in 29 matches for Persik Kediri before moving to Persebaya Surabaya, where he added nine goals in 33 appearances. His experience in the Indonesian Liga 1 will undoubtedly add firepower to the Amakhosi attack.
More New Faces at Naturena
Flavio Silva isn't the only new arrival at Kaizer Chiefs. Midfielder Ethan Chislett has also joined the club, completing his medicals after arriving from English League Two side Port Vale FC. Defender Nkanyiso Shinga is also expected to sign, joining from Portuguese side FC Alverca. These additions signal a serious intent from Chiefs to challenge for silverware next season.
Departures Make Way for New Talent
To make way for these new signings, Kaizer Chiefs have released several players, including Sabelo Radebe, Edmilson Dove, Mduduzi Mdantsane, Ranga Chivaviro, and Njabulo Blom. Further departures are expected as the club continues to reshape its squad under the watchful eye of the coaching staff.
Amakhosi fans will be hoping that Silva and the other new signings can bring the goals and success that they crave. The new season promises to be an exciting one!
