Kaizer Chiefs are on the verge of signing talented defender Ime Okon as they prepare for the 2025/2026 season. The 21-year-old’s contract with SuperSport United concludes this month, allowing him to join the Soweto club as a free agent. Following their Nedbank Cup victory, Chiefs aim to strengthen their squad under new coach Nasreddine Nabi, with Okon seen as a crucial addition to their defense. A source confirmed, ‘They see him as a long-term solution at centre-back.’ Despite previous interest from European clubs like FC Midtjylland and Dynamo Kyiv, no agreements were reached, paving the way for Chiefs to make their move. Okon’s recent performance in the COSAFA Cup has further highlighted his potential, making him an attractive prospect for the team.
