Hunt: Nurkovic is what Kaizer Chiefs' future needs

The Serbian marksman was key for Amakhosi last season with 13 goals and six assists in the league and was badly missed while injured

Kaizer Chiefs coach Gavin Hunt has explained why Samir Nurkovic's mentality makes him such an important player for the Soweto giants.

Nurkovic missed the first three months of the 2020/21 season through injury and at one point it also looked like he could be departing for Egyptian giants Al Ahly.

But since his return to action at the start of the year, the Serbian has made a very positive impact on Chiefs' fortunes.
