Kaizer Chiefs have confirmed that forward Glody Makabi Lilepo has completed a move to Libyan side Al Ahly Benghazi.

Lilepo arrive at Amakhosi from French outfit Valenciennes FC during the 2024-25 campaign and has gone on to score 15 goals and grabbed five assists in 56 appearances across all competitions.

The 29-year-old has since parted ways with the club to join the Libyan side after both clubs agreed a transfer fee for the DR Congo forward.

“Democratic Republic of Congo-born forward Glody Makabi Lilepo has completed a move from Kaizer Chiefs to Libyan side Al Ahly Benghazi, following an agreement on the transfer fee between the two Clubs,” Chiefs said in a statement.

“The 29-year-old versatile attacker joined the Soweto giants in January 2025 from French outfit Valenciennes. During his time at Amakhosi, Lilepo featured in 56 matches in all competitions, scoring 15 goals and providing 5 assists for the team. His versatility as both a winger and forward made him a valuable option in Chiefs’ attacking setup.

“Lilepo’s departure marks the end of an impactful one-and-a-half-year spell at Naturena where he contributed several memorable performances whenever he donned the Chiefs jersey.

“Some of the highlights include winning the Nedbank Cup barely four months after his arrival at Chiefs, and being nominated for goal-of-the-season in the PSL awards in 2025/26 season.

“The Club wishes Lilepo success in Libya and throughout the remainder of his football career.”
