Arthur Zwane had often lamented the lack of finishing from his Chiefs side despite signing Ashley du Preez, Bimenyimana and Christian Saile last season. Now according to the latest reports, Chiefs are set to go through yet another revamp and this time more than just age, it will also be the overall contribution that will decided whether a player stays at Naturena for the next season or not. One of those players who is thought to have not had the desired effect is striker Bimenyimana.

It then seemed like a rather strange decision by Zwane and his Amakhosi management to sign a player who they initially did not see as a perfect fit for the club. Just last week, it was reported the Zwane had told the Burundian international in front of his teammates that he was not part of his plans going forward.

Now just last week, it was reported by this publication that Bimenyimana had rejected an overseas offer, which could have been his escape from Chiefs. But now, the latest coming from FARPost is that the striker could well stay at Naturena, as it becomes increasingly difficult to offload him.
