The young keeper was promoted to the senior team earlier this year and is doing pre-season training with the club at the moment.
However, a source at the Naturena-based outfit has revealed the youngster will be doing duty mostly for the reserve side, but once he has fully adjusted to the senior level, he will be competing with the likes of Itumeleng Khune (below), Bruce Bvuma and Daniel Akpeyi for the No 1 position.

“You know that when Chiefs promote a player at such a young age you must realise he must be very special,” said the source.
“It happened with Nkosingiphile Ngcobo, he is such a special player, he is very talented, which is the reason why he was promoted. So Bontle will be first choice for Chiefs one day, but it will take some time because the competition is tough.”
