“The 22-year-old defender, a product of the Kaizer Chiefs Youth Development Academy, is expected to get regular playing time before returning to Naturena at the end of the season, having gained valuable experience.

“Cossa joins his teammate Sfiso Timba, who also recently moved to the Gauteng-based side. The pair’s presence at Gomora FC will help them gain exposure and give them opportunities to sharpen their skills at a professional level.

“The Club remains confident that both players will benefit from their time in the NFD and return to Naturena more mature, well-rounded footballers, ready to contribute to the Glamour Boys’ future success.”

Who is also out on loan?

Timba and Cossa are not the only ones sent by the Soweto giants to the second tier in search of minutes regularly.

“Kaizer Chiefs can confirm that two senior players and three from the Youth Development Academy have secured loan moves to gain valuable experience at various different clubs,” Amakhosi confirmed recently.

“Midfielder Samkelo Zwane and goalkeeper Bontle Molefe – both members of the senior squad – will spend this season at Cape Town-based Hope FC, where they will compete in the Motsepe Foundation League under the auspices of the PSL.

“In addition, three promising talents from the Academy have also been sent out on loan. Ofentse Kgosana and Vicky Mkhawana join Real Natives (formerly Casric Stars) in KwaMhlanga, Mpumalanga, for the season, while Sfiso Simba will remain in Gauteng to spend the campaign at Gomora FC,” the Glamour Boys concluded.

It will now be up to the loaned players to confirm they are ready to be considered for Amakhosi next season.
