Former Sundowns Scout Joins Chiefs

Kaizer Chiefs are delighted to announce the appointment of Thembela ‘Tera’ Maliwa to the post of Head of Scouting and Recruitment in the latest step in the implementation of their strategy to add quality to every aspect of the Club’s structures in order to produce success on the field.

Born and raised in Cape Town, Maliwa cut his teeth with formerly known as Ajax Cape Town, where he worked for 11 years. From there, he spent two years in the Netherlands before returning to South Africa to link up with Mamelodi Sundowns.

After concluding seven years of serving the Brazilians, Maliwa will now be committing his substantial expertise towards building a Kaizer Chiefs squad capable of putting silverware in the Club trophy cabinet. It is a challenge he is relishing.

“We all know what a big, great Club this is. I am really happy to be here,” he told on his first day at Naturena, “I am here to try to take the Club to another level in terms of scouting and recruitment. My plan is to identify and bring in the players that will take Amakhosi back to the glory days.”

In welcoming Maliwa to the Village, Chiefs Sporting Director, Kaizer Motaung Jr, said, “The importance of getting recruitment right cannot be overestimated. Identifying and procuring players with the right profile to fit our process is key to success and with Tera onboard, I am very confident that his wealth of knowledge and experience in the field will add value to our organisation and ultimately strengthen the team. We welcome him to Kaizer Chiefs and look forward to working with him.”
