PREMIERSHIP champions, Ngezi Platinum Stars, will boost their squad ahead of their second dance in the CAF inter-club tournament next year.
The Mashonaland West side are set to represent Zimbabwe in the CAF Champions League.
Ngezi Platinum Stars president, Takawira Maswiswi, said it was inevitable for the platinum miners to boost the squad next season.
“Next season, we have the Champions League and domestically we will be chasing the league championship and the Chibuku Super Cup.
“We will be chasing three cups and issues of fatigue and injuries will come into play.
“There is also the issue of resting players, different tactical approaches, depending on who you’re playing and where and so forth.”
He added:
“We will certainly need a very good blend of youth and experience, especially when you’re talking about the Champions League and it is a whole different arena.
“So, we are very alive to the fact that we have to think beyond the PSL for 2024.
“It is inevitable that we have to look at how we’re going to set up our team it is not just the players.
“I think, even at the technical level, we need a bit more buttressing within the technical team and make sure that our capability is right.
“Even within the administration, you will find that there are certain roles that will now also become critical when you’re now playing at that level (Champions League), so we’re looking at all those areas.”
