Kaizer Chiefs preparing $558k bid for in-demand Cape Town City midfielder Jaedin Rhodes

South African outfit Kaizer Chiefs are planning to table an offer worth $558k to sign Cape Town City midfielder Jaedin Rhodes in the ongoing summer transfer window.

The 22-year-old attacking midfielder has attracted significant interest from several clubs, with Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, and AmaZulu expressing firm interest in the player.

Rhodes performance in the recently concluded campaign overshadowed Cape Town City’s struggles as the club suffered relegation to the Motsepe Foundation Championship.

Amid growing interest, Kaizer Chiefs are said to be preparing a bid in the region of 558 thousand dollars for the acquisition of the midfielder.

The South African midfielder’s potential move fits perfectly into the club’s strategy for a major squad overhaul ahead of the 2025/26 season. The Chiefs are determined to rejuvenate and strengthen their attacking line.

Orlando Pirates were the first to show interest in the 22-year-old, before Kaizer Chiefs and AmaZulu FC entered the race.

Meanwhile, Cape Town City are expected to make a final decision after reviewing all the offers on the table.
