Yeye: We must stay humble

Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Reneilwe Letsholonyane said the team must stay humble following their 4-0 rout of Mpumalanga Black Aces in the MTN8 quarter-finals at the weekend.
Chiefs opened their season in style on Sunday, with Man of the Match Letsholonyane netting an early opener before a stunning strike from Kingston Nkhatha and brace from Mandla Masango ensured Amakhosi's progression at Soccer City.
Letsholonyane told his club's website: "To my teammates, we still have a lot of work to do, we will stay humble and keep working hard. To the supporters, we appreciate their support and we would like them to continue supporting us through good and tough times. And the results will come our way."
'Yeye' added: "The scoreline looks like it was one-way traffic but the game was not an easy one at all. We went into the game without knowing much about Aces. We did what our coach and his technical team told us to do and it worked for us."

Motaung clarifies Nale saga

Kaizer Chiefs football manager Bobby Motaung tells KickOff.com that Abia Nale is a free agent and can join any team of his choice - other than Mpumalanga Black Aces.
Nale spent last season on loan at Aces, and media reports suggest that Amakhosi want more than R1-million, despite him being out of contract.
But Motaung explains that Chiefs had an agreement with Aces regarding the player, hence the price-tag.
------------------------------------------

“When Aces took Nale on loan from us we made an agreement with them that if they want to keep the player, they have to pay a certain fee,” Motaung tells KickOff.com.
“This agreement was between us and Aces and it still stands if they want to take the player. But otherwise Nale is a free agent and can join any other team of his choice.
“If Aces want him then they must honour that agreement we had with them. Otherwise he can sign for any other team like Bidvest Wits, Ajax [Cape Town] or [Bloemfontein] Celtic.
