Ex-Kaizer Chiefs striker Nkhatha backs Nurkovic to overtake Orlando Pirates' Mhango

Former Kaizer Chiefs forward Kingston Nkhatha has tipped Samir Nurkovic to end the season as the Premier Soccer League (PSL) top goal-scorer, and likened the current Amakhosi side to the 2014/15 title-winning group.

Nurkovic, in his debut PSL season, has scored 11 league goals so far and is trailing leading scorer Frank Mhango (14) of Orlando Pirates by three strikes.

With Chiefs having played a game less than Pirates, Nurkovic could yet overtake Mhango if the season is resumed.

The likes of SuperSport forward Bradley Grobler, AmaZulu’s Bongi Ntuli, Peter Shalulile of Highlands Park - on 12 goals each - and Golden Arrows striker Knox Mutizwa (11) are also gunning to catch Mhango.
