Chippa monitoring Chiefs midfielder

A source close to Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Hendrick Ekstein has informed Phakaaathi that the 26-year old's situation at Amakhosi is closely being monitored by Chippa United. 


Ekstein has fallen out of favour at Chiefs and he is yet to feature for the team this year. The Eastern Cape outfit is apparently looking to get the Bekkersdal-born player on a loan deal come the end of the season.

“Someone mentioned that Chippa is very interested in him, they like him very much and think that he can gel in well with the rest of the guys like Menzi Masuku.

He is a ball-player and coach Dan Malesela loves such players. All we know for now is that they are interested in him, but there are some formalities that have to be followed because he is still contracted to Chiefs, they have to approach the team first,” said the source.
