According to reports, Kaizer Chiefs are set to part ways with attacker Tashreeq Morris as his contract approaches its expiration at the end of the current 2025/26 campaign. The R4-million forward is the latest Amakhosi player facing an uncertain future at Naturena, with club management reportedly not keen on extending his stay beyond June. Morris had previously been linked with a loan move in January, but that transfer failed to materialise, leaving his time at the club seemingly at an end.
The decision to release Morris is not surprising given his diminished role in the squad. The striker has fallen out of favour under Cedric Kaze and Ben Youssef, currently playing second fiddle to the likes of Flavia Silva, Wandile Duba, Ashley Du Preez, and Etioso Ighodaro. With limited game time, sources indicate that a contract renewal is highly unlikely for next season or beyond, making a departure the logical outcome for both the player and the club.
For Morris, a move away from Naturena represents the best path forward as he seeks more regular playing opportunities. Kaizer Chiefs, on the other hand, appear to have no plans for the attacker in their long-term strategy. As the season winds down, Morris will need to find a new club to continue his career, while Amakhosi look to reshape their attacking options ahead of the next campaign.
