Kaizer Chiefs defender Thabo Moloisane has spoken about his desire to win the Betway Premiership and secure CAF Champions League football for the club. The 27-year-old centre-back, who joined from Maritzburg United in 2023, described representing the club he grew up supporting as a dream come true.
Moloisane said his deep love for the club, developed from childhood, drives him to give his best on the pitch. He expressed gratitude to his former club Stellenbosch for their role in his career and to Chiefs for the opportunity to represent them. His stated goal is to write his own history and help return glory to the club, aiming to be counted among the players who brought happiness back to the supporters.
Moloisane made it clear that the club fights for every trophy. He said every game is equally important and that the large fan base demands results. While acknowledging recent draws, he pointed out that averaging two points a game keeps them in title contention. The defender stressed the team must keep working hard, starting with collecting three points in their next match. He explicitly stated the ambition is to win the league crown and qualify for the Champions League, a competition he is eager for the club to rejoin.
Kaizer Chiefs currently trail Mamelodi Sundowns by seven points in the Premiership and have drawn four of their last five league games. They face Stellenbosch at home on Tuesday before beginning their CAF Confederation Cup campaign in Zambia. Fellow defender Bradley Cross also commented, saying it is still early in the season and that competing for the title remains a definite goal, though results could have been better. Orlando Pirates ended Sundowns' eight-year reign as champions last season, showing the title race is open.
For Sekhukhune United, who sit sixth in the Premier Soccer League with 11 points from seven games, the focus is on their own campaign. They are unbeaten in three, with a win and two draws, and host 16th-placed Marumo Gallants next. Fans can check the full fixtures list and the latest standings as the season develops. Sekhukhune's next match is at home against Marumo Gallants on 17 October.
