Kaizer Chiefs have bolstered their technical team by acquiring the services of Muzi Maluleke from the University of Pretoria.

Maluleke will join the team as their new senior sports science and strength and conditioning coach for the senior team.

The coach holds a Masters of Science degree from the University of Pretoria and has previous experience representing South Africa in the National Teams at U17 and U20 levels.

Maluleke has already started his work at Amakhosi and will form part of the bench when the new season kicks off in August this year.

“We are delighted to have Muzi come on board our new High Performance department,” Amakhosi Sporting Director Kaizer Motaung Jr told the clubs official website.

‘We searched far and wide for individuals who could come in and fit into the vision of the Club moving forward.

“For us, the High Performance division is an important component in laying the foundation for the Kaizer Chiefs game model of the future. It is an area where we will continue to grow with strategic appointments. We will be looking to build a solid link between the first team and Youth Academy structures to ensure we create strong physical pathways for our athletes,” concludes Motaung Jr.
