Vries, Chiefs part ways
Namibian international goalkeeper Virgil Vries has parted ways with South African glamour club, Kaizer Chiefs, after spending a mere season at the Soweto outfit.
“Kaizer Chiefs would like to announce the departure of goalkeeper Virgil Vries. His contract with the club has been terminated and is effective immediately. The club wishes him all the best in his future endeavours,” the club announced yesterday.
“The club confirmed that negotiations with the Namibian goalminder were concluded on Tuesday afternoon... Virgil Vries joined Chiefs on 1 July 2018 and with immediate effect (30 April) entered into a mutual termination and release agreement.
“The club thanked Vries for his contribution and wished him all the best in his future endeavours as he prepares for the upcoming Cosafa and Africa Cup of Nations tournaments with the Namibian national team.”
Vries has played just five times for Chiefs this season. He particularly enjoyed game time when first choice goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune was ruled out with a long-term injury. However, a number of uninspiring performances saw the Namibian goalie dropping further in the pecking order.
