Kaizer Chiefs officially bolstered their attacking options with the arrival of winger Elias Mokwana.
The 27-year-old joined Amakhosi as a free agent following his departure from North African powerhouse Espérance de Tunis.
Before landing at Naturena, Mokwana built an impressive resume spanning three clubs across South Africa, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia.
This is where Elias Mokwana announced himself on the big stage. Arriving as a top-flight novice, his two-year spell with Babina Noko turned heads across South African football.
It earned him his debut Bafana Bafana call-up in 2023. Over 65 appearances, the dynamic right-winger notched six goals and seven assists.
This stint quickly made him one of the most sought-after players both locally and across the continent.
Elias Mokwana arrived in Tunisia in 2024 to massive fanfare, with supporters expecting him to be their next standout star.
Though he started brightly on the pitch, off-field issues quickly dampened his stint. Months of unpaid salaries and outstanding signing-on fees eventually led to a sour exit.
Despite the turmoil, he made 35 appearances for the Tunisian giants, scoring seven goals and contributing four assists while maintaining his national team status.
During his time with Esperance, Elias Mokwana spent a loan spell in Saudi Arabia with Al Hazem.
After a slow start where game time was hard to come by in the opening eight matches, he eventually broke into the side and became a regular feature.
While he couldn’t quite replicate his explosive Sekhukhune form, he managed 26 appearances, registering one goal and three assists.
