Kaizer Chiefs head coach Ernst Middendorp has disclosed that Super Eagles goalkeeper Akpeyi will continue to be in goal for the Club.
Akpeyi joined the Amakhosi following the injury of Itumeleng Khune and has brilliant for the Club ever since.
However, Middendorp has now confirmed that Akpeyi is now the number one for Kaizer ChiefsAkpeyi rescued a point for Kaizer Chiefs after another heroic display against Maritzburg United last weekend when he saved a penalty.
“I don’t know, what are you saying? But who has been No.1 this season? Let’s not talk about other players,” responded Middendorp when asked about which keeper was his number one.
“We have a number-one goalkeeper, who is performing week-in and week-out, who is the national team goalkeeper for Nigeria, having done a fantastic job in Afcon.
“Guys, we are looking into things, the performances we are getting week-in and week-out, the record is there as a reference. What you are saying is a little bit far out of the frame,” concluded Middendorp.
