Kaizer Chiefs have been struggling for consistency despite signing seven players to bolster their squad for the ongoing 2024/25 Premier Soccer League campaign.
The Soweto giants have not kept a clean sheet in the eight games they have played this season. Amakhosi have conceded 12 goals in the PSL, and a 16 across all competitions. they have won three league matches, drawn two and lost three.
The latest setbacks were against Royal AM and Polokwane City respectively. Against the former, they threw a two-goal lead to share the spoils before falling 2-0 against Rise and Shine last weekend.
Coach Nasreddine Nabi has now shared he will be bringing in a new striker to help his team ease pressure on defenders since the Glamour Boys have been missing open chances in front of the goal.
Nabi set to ‘bring someone'
“We can't create a lot of opportunities when we don't have a clear idea, game model, of what we have been putting at training,” the 59-year-old told the media.
“It's true, there are a lot [of] options we're looking at to try to solve the issue, probably bring someone. It's one of the options that might give the solution to the issue. It's true, we know that it has been an issue conceding goals, but we need to look at the bigger picture. When you don't score, you give the opportunity and morale to the opponent.
“That's why we don't want to put the blame on the defenders. We want everyone to work harder, offensively and defensively,” Nabi concluded.
Amakhosi are currently ninth on the table with 11 points, with their next assignment coming on Monday against TS Galaxy.
