Maluleka cools contract talks with Chiefs

Kaizer Chiefs midfielder George Maluleka says signing a new contract with Amakhosi is not on top of his list of priorities.


Maluleka is in the last six months of his contract and insists winning silverware this season is more important than his future at the club.

The former SuperSport United midfielder is celebrating his 31st birthday on the same day the Chiefs celebrates their 50th anniversary.

“It’s my birthday and the club’s [birthday], who are celebrating their 50 years. So, it’s important that we keep going and collect as many points as we can, especially with what’s happening in the league,” Maluleka told the media.

“I think the target in the next five games is to get to 50 points,” he added.

“Then that could give us a chance to say that we are really title contenders. There are a few teams that are up there and we don’t want the lead to slip because it’s gone from 10 to four but there’s no pressure on us.”
