Following the conclusion of the 2024-25 PSL season, all teams have turned their attention to shaping their squads for improved performances in the 2025-26 campaign.
That means scanning the transfer market for the best talents at the best possible prices and there are also a number of free agents to be snapped up.
PSL champions Mamelodi Sundowns are expected to spend big once again as they bid to stay at the top of the tree and challenge on the continent with Orlando Pirates out to improve on their second place and CAF Champions League semi-final of last season.
Kaizer Chiefs, meanwhile, are busy after a disappointing ninth place finish in the PSL but Nedbank Cup glory means they will be in the CAF Confederation Cup, hence a need for reinforcements.
