The Yellow Nation welcomes George Maluleka to the most successful team in PSL era. In a letter, Maluleka thanked Kaizer Chiefs.
“To the chairman [Kaizer Motaung], staff members and faithful Kaizer Chiefs fans, it’s a constant surprise of just how far a road we have travelled together,” said Maluleka in a letter.
“The continued love, commitment and support you’ve shown can never be forgotten. The road that I have travelled with Kaizer Chiefs could not have been done without your continued support.”
“Thanks for always getting excited about the games we played as a team, despite it not always ending good. Your support expressed on social media and other platforms, also in real life and in real-time, will always be appreciated.”
The midfielder played six years for Chiefs, scoring six times in over 130 games.
“Endings are never easy, but I celebrate it knowing that it precedes new beginnings. As I enter a new season, I remember the powerful words of Martin Luther King Jr: “Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”
