Miguel Inacio, a defender from Petro de Luanda, explains why he turned down bigger North African offers to join Kaizer Chiefs. Inacio recently joined Amakhosi from Petro de Luanda.
The Chiefs have also signed Bongani Sam, Njabulo Blom, Bradley Cross, Gaston Sirino, Rushwin Dortley, and Fiacre Ntwari to strengthen their squad ahead of the 2024/25 Betway Premiership season.
Inacio, who can also play right back and central defensive midfield, is known to be a favorite of Amakhosi coach Nasreddine Nabi.
This highly rated centre-back's reasoning goes beyond the pitch, rooted in the club's prestige and long-term plans.
He described his new home in no ambiguous terms. Chiefs are a different team, in my opinion, there is no comparison in Africa. For him, the PSL club's magnitude, development structures, and organisation are comparable to Braga in Portugal, demonstrating Chiefs' enduring appeal.

A new Amakhosi coach, Nasreddine Nabi, is known to be a fan of Inacio, who can also fill in at right back and central defensive midfield.
The highly regarded centre-back's reasoning goes beyond the pitch, rooted in the club's status and long-term vision.
In his description of his new home, the 28-year-old did not mince words. He believes that Chiefs is different from other teams in Africa. He compares the PSL club’s magnitude, development structures, and organisation to those he experienced at Braga, a testament to the club’s enduring appeal.
Despite lucrative offers from North Africa, Inacio insisted that his motivations lie elsewhere. "If I wanted money, I wouldn't come to South Africa," he said quite frankly.
