Ready for pre-season – Cardoso

Kaizer Chiefs’ first team squad has resumed training. “I am looking forward to pre-season,” comments Daniel Cardoso, who looks rested, sharp and ready to go.

The defender player started last season in 16 matches (12 league and four cup games), coming on in four more league fixtures. That was a big improvement on his first season as an Amakhosi when Cardoso only started in three league games, while he came on as a substitute in one.

The 28-year-old scored his first goal for Kaizer Chiefs last season, netting the equaliser in the 1-1 draw against Ajax Cape Town in February.

Cardoso didn’t go anywhere during the break. “I was just around Johannesburg,” he reflects on the three-and-a-half week break. “It was to relax a bit. I had a good rest.”

Amakhosi participate in two pre-season friendly tournaments, the Maize Cup on Saturday, 15 July, and the Carling Black Label Champion Cup on Saturday, 29 July.

The Chiefs defender stresses the important of pre-season. “What you put in at training during pre-season is what you get out for the rest of the season,” Cardoso says.
