A lot was expected from the 31-year-old forward to end the trophy drought at Naturena, however, things didn’t go according to plan as the Chiefs are currently fighting to remain in the top eight with two games left before the DStv Premiership concludes.

“Personally for me, I feel we have underachieved as a club. Obviously, we did not manage to reach the goals that we wanted. But with that being said, we still have something to play for,” said Chivaviro.

“As it’s our last home game, we want to end it on a high and we want to win the game. And obviously, we want to make sure that the top eight spots are secured.”

Chivaviro has made 21 appearances across all competitions for the Glamour Boys and contributed four goals.  

“I think for me it’s quite clear. I wish I scored more goals, but it’s always a process, you know, and I’m on four now, and hopefully, by the time I end I’ll be, you know, maybe around six, seven, and I take that to the next season,” Ranga added.

“Obviously, when I came here my first three months I was injured and I was playing catch-up with everyone else.

“I didn’t have a pre-season and things are starting to fall into place now because I’m getting into that match fitness place and I hope it doesn’t end until the season ends and I continue when the season opens again.”

Kaizer Chiefs will play their last home match against Polokwane City on Saturday 18 May before they travel to Cape Town Spurs to conclude their 2023/24 campaign on Saturday 25 May.
