Chiefs target Masalesa


Bidvest Wits midfielder Lehlogonolo ‘Vieira’ Masalesa has returned from his two week trial in Portugal to find out that Kaizer Chiefs are interested in signing him.   

Masalesa has been on trial at Portuguese Primeira Liga club Sporting Lisbon.
   
KickOff.com has learnt that Chiefs have shown interest in the 20 year-old central midfield.
  
AmaKhosi are keen to beef up their central midfield with young talent and Masalesa has been identified as suitable though the club must also first make some decisions about certain midfield players in their team.
 
Chiefs will need midfielders when at least two players are expected to leave the club soon.
 
The midfielder has starred at Wits this season and was named the Young Player of the Year at the club.
 
He has also been called up to the Bafana Bafana squad for World Cup qualifiers against Ethiopia and Botswana and a friendly against Gabon.  
 
Masalesa is a product of the Africa Sport Youth Academy and was at Platinum Stars before his move to Wits in January last year.
