Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates clash postponed

“Legends Derby Postponed. The organisers will advise on a new date soon,” Chiefs confirmed

“The winners of the match will face an international legends team in April, with the opportunity beckoning for Amakhosi to come up against a star-studded international team,” the initial statement read.

Chiefs to let Chislett go?

One player destined for the exit door is playmaker Ethan Chislett; the 27-year-old arrived from third-tier English side Port Vale on 1 July 2025 but has yet to make his debut. Just because a player has played in England doesn’t mean he’s good enough for the technical level required in South Africa’s top tier.

Kaizer Chiefs’ February fixtures come thick and fast

Chiefs have a busy schedule in the second month of 2026. They’ll be hoping that Rushwin Dortley plays some part. The 23-year-old has yet to feature in the 2025-26 campaign, but that hasn’t shown in recent weeks. The Glamour Boys are on a stunning run of six consecutive clean sheets across all competitions.
