In anticipation of the new season, Amakhosi has brought in a familiar face to strengthen their team.

Njabulo Blom, an athlete who progressed through the ranks at Amakhosi, has returned to his starting point – Naturena.

He returned to the club on a one-year loan deal from St Louis City, a Major League Soccer team.

In January 2023, Blom was signed to play under his fellow countryman Bradley Carnell for the MLS team.

Nonetheless, after Carnell’s exit, the utility player experienced a decrease in his game time under the interim coach, John Hackworth.

With the player clearly not in the plans of the new mentor, it made sense for him to return home and start afresh.

Here, GOAL looks at what the 24-year-old will bring to Chiefs and whether this was the right move for him at this point of his career.
