With Kaizer Chiefs set to depart for their pre-season tour in the Netherlands this week, there are plenty of transfer developments taking place inside the walls of the Village in what will be an eventful week.
Much to their supporters' frustration, Chiefs are yet to announce a single signing for the new season. That is set to change this week as they are set to unveil several of their new acquisitions who will be part of the pre-season tour.
Despite their silence, management have been hard at work behind the scenes and have already secured the services of several players who could be unveiled before the end of the week.

KZN Academy product Nkanyiso Shinga has also been roped in from Portugal to fill the left-back position following the departures of Edmilson Dove and Thatayaone Ditlhokwe.
The future remains cloudy for the duo of Bongani Sam and Bradley Cross.
Still in defence, Chiefs are also expected to unveil Thabiso Monyane, poached from rivals Orlando Pirates.
Up front, Nasreddine Nabi has strengthened the team with the signing of striker Flavio Silva, who was prized away from Indonesian Premier League club Persebaya Surabaya.
Furthermore, the Soweto giants are still expected to make announcements on several players who could be leaving the team.
Sam, who has not made a single competitive appearance for the team, is expected to leave, as is midfielder George Matlou.
Goalkeeper Fiacre Ntwari could go out on loan.
