Kaizer Chiefs have confirmed they have parted ways with attacking midfielder George Matlou.

The 27-year-old joined Amakhosi from the now defunct Moroka Swallows during the 2022-23 season.

He spent four seasons at the club where he assisted three goals in 46 appearances across all competitions.

The Soweto-born attacking midfielder only managed six appearances last season, four in the Betway Premiership and two in the CAF Confederation Cup.

“After four seasons with Kaizer Chiefs, George Matlou’s contract will not be renewed when it expires at the end of June 2026,” Chiefs said in a statement.

“The 27-year-old attacking midfielder joined the Glamour Boys from Swallows FC in July 2022 and played an important role in the squad that lifted the Nedbank Cup during the 2024/25 season.

“We thank George for his commitment and contribution to Amakhosi and wish him well in his future career.”
