Kaizer Chiefs are set to let go of one of their players to gain experience elsewhere and for the team to create space for new signings, according to insiders privy to information.
Due to a lack of game time at the club, Chiefs are set to loan out young midfielder Samkelo Zwane, the Siya crew understands.

Siya sources at the club and close to the player have indicated that the 22-year-old needs to progress at a different team.
"There are a few young players as well as the older ones who will either be released or sent out on loan next season and one such player who is set for a loan move to gain experience through more game time is Samkelo (Zwane)," said the Siya source.
"You have noticed that this season he has not played that much due to competition in his position where you have Yusuf Maart, Edson Castillo and Sibongiseni Mthethwa as well. So the club feels loaning him out would be a good move for both the club and the player at this point," the source told Soccer Laduma.
A second Siya source stated that the club is also looking at bringing in new players and wants to open up space for them.
"As it is every season, the team is looking at bringing in new players and they don't want the youngsters to just stay on the bench or in the stands without playing. That's why they will loan out some of them including Samkelo (Zwane). The club still values him, that's why they want him to go and gain experience so that when he comes back he can help the team going forward.
"Remember he is only 22 years of age and has a bright future ahead of him," the source observed.
Last season under coach Arthur Zwane, the young Samelo played in 12 games while this season, so far he has only featured in six games mainly coming on from the bench.
Soccer Laduma contacted Chiefs for a comment but no response was received by the time this story was published.
