Chiefs and Chelsea’s Braga brotherhood
Neto and Miguel were both at Portuguese side Braga at the same time, between 2017 and 2019.
Neto, 25, joined Chelsea this season and is a key member of Enzo Marseca’s Blues squad, who are chasing a spot in next season’s Uefa Champions League.
Miguel, 29, joined Kaizer Chiefs this season, and has impressed despite a disappointing overall campaign for the club. The Angolan picked up a knock in Chiefs’ 1-1 draw with TS Galaxy last weekend. He will hope to have recovered in time for Sunday’s Nedbank Cup semifinal against Mamelodi Sundowns at Loftus Stadium.
In the Chiefs YouTube interview, Miguel also states that his pet peeve is ‘losing’. This means he must have been peeved quite a lot this season in an Amakhosi shirt!
He also reveals his favourite South African food is pap with anything. And he has picked up some Zulu, including words like ‘Siyabonga’ and ‘Kunjani’.
‘Do or die’
His favourites catchphrase is ‘Do or die’ which is certainly appropriate for the Sundowns game. Chiefs need to beat Masandawana on Saturday to keep up their hopes of going a decade without a single piece of Premier Soccer League silverware.
