There are shades of a return to the dominant Mochudi Centre Chiefs' era with the club busy in the transfer market ahead of the new season.

Magosi, who dominated the late 2000's era, claimed the 'galaticos' approach of signing in the market as they went after the league's top talents. The return of a muscling Chiefs in the market is on the horizon after the club confirmed high profile arrivals this week whilst the Kgatleng giants pursue a long list of hot targets. This week, Chiefs confirmed the capture of Comoros' forward, Ibroihim Youssoff from African Stars in Namibia.

The new Chiefs' number nine comes highly rated after an impressive turnout at the just-ended COSAFA Cup and has penned a two-year deal. In addition, Magosi have sealed the signing of goalkeeper, Kabelo Maphakela from sworn rivals, Township Rollers. The shot-stopper was on loan at Chiefs until January and he is now returning on a two-year contract. In addition, Chiefs recruited Kgotso Phuti from Extension Gunners and full back, Thabang Selebogo from VTM FC. The four signings are sending warning signs to Chiefs' fellow league rivals before the start of the 2025–2026 FNB Premiership season.
