While his contributions currently stand at one goal and one assist, the talented youngster is clearly focused on growing his influence on the pitch and making a greater impact for his team.

In a candid interview on the club’s official website, Vilakazi reflected on his journey so far and expressed his ambitions.

“From a personal point of view, I am happy with my progress. I have managed to get into the starting XI twice this season, and I just want to keep on learning and improving. I am not putting too much pressure on myself.

“I just want to make a contribution to the team. If I make an assist, for me it’s as good as a goal, and the goals themselves will also come,” he added.

Chiefs are looking to recover from their 1-0 loss to Golden Arrows at the same venue last week. Vilakazi believes the team is prepared to take on an in-form Sekhukhune United side, who are currently fourth on the league standings with 23 points from 12 matches.

“As a team, we are ready for this game. We won’t be taking them for granted. We are very serious in our approach to the game because we want to win, and that will take a great effort. Everyone is motivated to give everything on the field to get the result,” Vilakazi stated.

Chiefs currently sit in seventh place with 18 points from 13 matches, while Sekhukhune hold fourth spot.
