Former Chiefs midfielder shown door at Thanda

A former Kaizer Chiefs player has been shown the door at National First Division team, Thanda Royal Zulu.


Table topping Amabhubesi confirmed on Friday that former Amakhosi midfielder, Steven Ncanana had been released by the club.

“It was a mutual termination because what happens is that after six months we review the (players’) contracts,” said Amabhubesi CEO, Jomo Biyela.

Ncanana joined Amakhosi in 2010 and was heralded as a future star, but failed to make the grade and was eventually offloaded in 2012.

Others who were released by Amabhubesi are Thabang Makgabutlane and Thulani Khwinana.

Biyela said Thanda – who are top of the NFD standings with 32 points – will sign four players during the current transfer window but declined to name them.
