Van Heerden refutes Chiefs move reports

Former Orlando Pirates and AmaZulu left back Marc van Heerden has dismissed reports linking him to Kaizer Chiefs after he parted ways with AmaZulu.


Van Heerden, who still had a year left on his contract with AmaZulu, parted ways with the club last week.

He has since been linked with Chiefs, but he has disputed those reports.

“I parted with AmaZulu and it was amicable,” Van Heerden was quoted as saying by Isolezwe. “I had a good offer from a team and I couldn’t refuse it. But I can guarantee that it is not Kaizer Chiefs.

“Soon everyone will know which team I will join for next season.”

This is not the first time Van Heerden has been linked with Chiefs. He was rumoured to be on his way to Naturena when he left Pirates but decided to go back to AmaZulu.
