Bongani Sam to Chippa United?

Former Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs left-back Bongani Sam has returned to the Eastern Cape.

Sam’s Kaizer Chiefs career didn't last due to a bad injury, and former coach Nasreddine Nabi’s refusal to offer him a chance.

The former Bloemfontein Celtic left-back has now returned to his hometown of Gqeberha. According to iDiski Times, the 28-year-old is trying his luck at the Chilli Boys.
