Kaizer Chiefs coach Midderndorp's trust delights Blom

Kaizer Chiefs utility player Njabulo Blom says being versatile has helped him cement his place in the first team.

The 19-year-old played youth football as a central defender and he has now adjusted to Chiefs coach Ernst Midderndorp shifting him to the right-back position.

The German tactician has also hinted that Blom can also operate as a holding midfielder for the Soweto giants.

“My relationship with the coach is good, he always asks me where I feel comfortable playing and because I’ve been playing a lot of positions from like an early age," Blom told Far Post.
