Mozambican international Stanley Ratifo detailed his time spent at Kaizer Chiefs as part of an assessment during the January transfer window when Zwane was seeking to widen his attacking options.
Plying his trade in the Germany's fifth tear, the 28-year-old was assessed alongside Maurizio Macorig, Amansio Joao Pita 'Neymar' Canhembe and Christian Saile Basomboli, who eventually cracked the nod at Amakhosi.
Ratifo spoke glowingly about the Glamour Boys and says it would be a pleasure to play for the Soweto Giants.

Former Chiefs attacking midfielder, Gert Schalkwyk has backed Amakhosi to lift the Nedbank Cup trophy.

Here's how the readers responded to his comments on the "Schalkwyk backs Chiefs to lift Nedbank Cup" story:
"Anything is possible in football. However this project is still not convincing. The style, system, philosophy is still not clear. The reputation seems to be the one thing that's carrying the AmaKhosi through this inconsistent journey. We hope and pray for the best," says Mako147.
"And lets not forget that Chiefs only won in extra time and of course, playing against 10-men," says makhause2.
"This poor Schalkwyk is just wishing for something good to happen at Chiefs but the fact is, things are not happening in Naturena. Downs rule!" says Downs=Winning.
"Next round they will be out," says Dominate-downs.
