In their latest move as they plan for the season ahead, Kaizer Chiefs have secured the services of Angolan international, Inacio Miguel Ferreira dos Santos from Petro de Luanda, one of the biggest Clubs in his homeland.

The 28-year-old centre-back, who is simply known as Inacio Miguel in football, arrived in South Africa on Tuesday afternoon to undergo his medical before signing a three-year deal with Amakhosi.

Miguel, the first Angolan international to sign for Chiefs’ senior team, is the fifth addition to the squad during the current transfer window. He joins Rushwin Dortley, Fiacre Ntwari, Bongani Sam and Gaston Sirino, who all arrived in the last few weeks.

The Portuguese-born defender was an integral part of the Petro de Luanda team that participated in the CAF Champions league and won Angola’s domestic league title last season. He has also appeared five times in Angolan national team colours.

“We are happy to have a player of Inacio Miguel’s calibre join our team,” says Sporting Director, Kaizer Motaung Jr. “We’ve watched him and believe his experience, skill and passion for the game embody the spirit of Kaizer Chiefs and will add a lot of positives in the team. We believe that he will contribute significantly with his talent and are looking forward to working with him as he writes another chapter of his career in South Africa.”
