Kaizer Chiefs are closely monitoring Congolese striker Basiala Agee with the intention of bringing him to Naturena when the transfer window reopens in January. The Soweto giants have been impressed by Agee’s performances and could make a move for him in the upcoming window.
Chiefs have already sent their scouts, led by Thembela ‘Tera’ Maliwa, to observe Agee in action.
Last Tuesday, during a CAF Champions League clash between his team, AS Maniema Union, and Mamelodi Sundowns at Loftus Versfeld Stadium, the 25-year-old striker caught the eye of the Chiefs' talent scouts.
According to sources close to the club, Agee’s display against the defending PSL champions left a lasting impression, and Chiefs are now considering him as a potential signing for 2025.
The source revealed, “Kaizer Chiefs scouts were at Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Tuesday to watch the player. Tera was there with the Kaizer Chiefs officials. They were impressed. He has been identified as one of the players that could be signed by the club in January.”
Agee, who currently plays for AS Maniema Union, has shown great potential in the continental competition, and Chiefs are keen to bolster their attack with his services.
Should the move materialize, Agee would join his fellow Congolese, Christian Saile Basomboli, at the Amakhosi, strengthening their foreign player contingent.
Nasreddine Nabi’s AS Maniema Union team still has the flexibility to release foreign players, and if all goes according to plan, Agee could be donning the gold and black of Chiefs as early as 2025.
The club is keen to build on its squad depth and add quality as they continue to challenge for domestic and continental honours.
