Dolly: I want to share my experience with Ngcobo, Mashiane

New Kaizer Chiefs signing Keagan Dolly wants to share and use his experiences to help youngsters like Nkosingiphile Ngcobo and Happy Mashiane.

The 28-year-old returns to the South African top-flight after spending the past four-and-a-half-years in France, where he scored one goal and assisted three from 64 appearances across all competitions.

Dolly has since joined Amakhosi along with former Bidvest Wits midfielder Cole Alexander, who joins the club after leaving Indian Super League outfit Odisha FC.

Both Dolly and Alexander has put pen to paper on a three-year contract that will keep them in Naturena until the end of the 2024/25 season.

“Obviously, I am happy. I am finally settled in. I am just excited to be here and start my career with Chiefs. I look forward to meeting all my teammates and coaching staff and just get down to business,” Dolly told the club’s media department.

“Since I was young, my father introduced me to Kaizer Chiefs. We supported Kaizer Chiefs, I think since the age of five. I used to watch the likes of Shoes Moshoeu, may his soul rest in peace. I grew up watching Stanton Fredericks, Jabu Pule (now Mahlangu). I used to dye my hair like Jabu Pule when I played for Westbury Arsenal, so it’s not new to me. I know what the club is about and I know the mentality at the club. I am ready to get down to business. 

“With me coming back to Chiefs, it's to share my experiences with the youngsters coming up. I watched Mashiane, I watched Ngcobo playing and they are looking very good. Where I can help, I will try my best to give them advice. I learnt a lot in France and hopefully I can come back and share my experiences.”
