Despite hopes that Kgaogelo Ramushu would make it to the first team at Kaizer Chiefs under coach Nasreddine Nabi, the talented youngster is no longer with the club, the Siya crew has learnt.
Nabi has shown a willingness to integrate academy graduates into the senior squad, but Ramushu's departure remains mysterious.

The 23-year-old had been with Chiefs for over five years, making significant strides in his development, particularly with the DStv Diski Challenge (DDC) team, where he captained the side.
His impressive performances suggested he was on the verge of a first-team breakthrough.
However, his journey took an unexpected turn when he missed Chiefs' pre-season trip to Turkey in July due to visa issues, as indicated by sources at the time.
Now, according to reliable sources, Ramushu has surfaced at Polokwane City, where he is currently training and could potentially secure a contract.
"Look, I don't really know what happened between Kgaogelo Ramushu and Chiefs, but what I can tell you is that he is no longer with the club. What I do also know is that he is training with Polokwane City. He has been there for over a week now," said the source.
"Kgaogelo is such a talented player with a bright future in football. He was Chiefs' DDC team captain. At some stage, he played with some of the talented young players you are seeing doing well in the first team of Chiefs and he too has always been doing well. The boy is quality, and he can play in different positions, whether as a left-back, left winger, or as a number six," concluded the source.

For now, the talented player's focus appears to be on securing his next move and continuing his promising career elsewhere.
