I’m Setting the Record Straight Mihlali Mayambela Addresses Kaizer Chiefs Transfer Rumours in YouTube Tell-All
10 July 2025
Johannesburg — South African international Mihlali Mayambela is set to break his silence and address swirling speculation linking him with a blockbuster move to Kaizer Chiefs, in a highly anticipated YouTube interview airing on his official channel in just 30 minutes.
The broadcast teased with the tagline “It’s time I set the record straight” has already sparked a flurry of interest among fans, agents, and PSL insiders alike, as Chiefs supporters await clarity on whether the versatile midfielder could be heading to Naturena ahead of the 2025/26 DStv Premiership season.
Mayambela, currently on the books of Aris Limassol in Cyprus, has remained tight-lipped despite growing speculation that he is being courted by Amakhosi as part of their squad overhaul under new head coach Nasreddine Nabi.
Reports in recent weeks claimed that Chiefs were pursuing Mayambela to fill the creative void left by several midfield departures a rumour that gained traction when the player was spotted in Johannesburg last month.
There’s been a lot of talk, a lot of noise… I owe it to my fans and the South African football community to speak my truth,” Mayambela said in a teaser clip.
The interview will also touch on Mayambela’s recent national team form and his aspirations regarding a potential return to the PSL or continued pursuit of success abroad.
While Chiefs have not issued any formal comment on the Mayambela rumours, insiders say the club is actively seeking experienced playmakers to inject creativity into the squad, with Mayambela fitting the profile of a technically gifted, tactically flexible attacker.
Mayambela has matured as a player in Europe. If Chiefs can bring him in, it could be the kind of marquee move that re-energises their fan base and midfield.
Mayambela, 28, has been a consistent performer in the Cypriot First Division and remains a regular in Bafana Bafana call-ups. His dribbling, vision, and ability to unlock tight defences have made him a standout talent and a hot commodity as the South African transfer window heats up.
With several European clubs also rumoured to be monitoring his situation, Mayambela’s public statement could influence ongoing negotiations across multiple fronts.
