‘We are awaiting the arrival of Kearyn Baccus from Melbourne City in Australia. The two clubs have agreed terms and the midfielder is expected to officially be announced this week‚’ Chiefs said.
The Soweto giants endured a difficult 2018-19 season where they changed coaches mid-season on their way to finishing ninth in the league. This means that they will not be competing in next season’s MTN8 allowing their new signings more time to adjust.
Amakhosi will, however, now have an issue with their overseas quota and will likely have to get rid of two of the foreigners already contracted at the club.
