Kaizer Chiefs have officially parted ways with attacking midfielder, Sabelo “Bibo” Radebe, the club confirmed via a statement.
Chiefs decision comes just weeks after Radebe’s return to Naturena from an unsuccessful loan spell at Betway Premiership side Richards Bay FC.
Kaizer Chiefs statement reads as follows:
Kaizer Chiefs have officially parted ways with attacking midfielder, Sabelo “Bibo” Radebe.
Radebe, now 25, joined Amakhosi as a teenager and progressed through the junior ranks in the Kaizer Chiefs Youth Development Academy before moving up to the reserve team in the 2017/18 season.
He signed after earning a spot in the senior team in the 2020/21 season, following an impressive performance in the DStv Diski Challenge.
Last season, he had a one year loan spell at KwaZulu-Natal based, Richards Bay FC.
We wish “Bibo” all the best in his future endeavours.
He was part of a group of promising talents—including Lebohang Lesako, Darrel Matsheke, and Keletso Sifama—who were promoted to the Kaizer Chiefs senior team in 2021 under then-coach Gavin Hunt.
Meanwhile Sekhukhune United are set to sign midfielder Miguel Timm after his exit from Orlando Pirates.
With Sipho Mbule returning to Mamelodi Sundowns after his loan deal, Timm is set to compete with Thabang Monare, Relebogile Mokhuoane and Siphesihle Mkhize for a place in the starting line-up.
