Similarly, rumors linking the club to Lanjesi Nkhoma were also debunked, with the management making it clear that they had not made an offer for the Malawian winger.

Discredited Claims

Another player linked to the Kaizer Chiefs was Gabadinho Mhango, but as recent reports suggest, these claims have also been discredited. As a result, it is clear that none of the three players will be joining the Amakhosi.

Pursuing New Talent

Despite these developments, the Kaizer Chiefs are still on the lookout for fresh talent. The club is currently interested in signing a left-back and an additional striker, and they are keeping their options open as they scout the field for suitable candidates.

Recent reports suggest that the club is on the verge of signing Bafana Bafana midfielder Thabo Cele. Additionally, the race to sign Orlando Pirates’ target Rowan Human is far from over, with the Kaizer Chiefs among the clubs interested in the Maritzburg United midfielder.

The Transfer Market Hype

In conclusion, the transfer market is riddled with rumors and speculation, and the recent rumors surrounding the Kaizer Chiefs serve as a reminder to fans and the media to be cautious before jumping to conclusions. While the Kaizer Chiefs have put the rumors regarding Zungu, Mhango, and Nkhoma to rest, the club continues to pursue new talent to bolster their roster.
