Chivaviro was born in Limpopo to a Zimbabwean father and a South African mother, giving him the rare opportunity to represent either country – whichever comes first.
Nees, speaking after his side beat Namibia 3-0 in an AFCON qualifier, confirmed monitoring the Amakhosi forward.
"Look, we have a long list of players, we are interested in every good player but we also have good players here. We observe everybody and then when the time is right, we will make a decision if we approach someone or not,” Nees said.
“It's not just because someone plays at Kaizer Chiefs. Last year at Kaizer Chiefs he had four goals I think but a year before, very good time. So, we observe every player but we must also praise our players who are here, they played very good today, they scored three goals."
The German-born mentor added that any player they bring to the squad should make the squad stronger than it already is.
"We have a long list but it's not just that we have to bring in, bring in, it must really add value but that doesn't mean I do anything to rate his quality right now. He had a very good time when he was at his club before Kaizer Chiefs, he started the season on a very high and we will look," he added.
Nees edged The Warriors closer to qualifying for the AFCON in Morocco next year with the win over Namibia.
He shared his thoughts on the clash played at Orlando Stadium due to both sides not having adequate facilities to stage the match in their own backyard.
"It was a tough game against a very strong opponent with an attacking line, very strong attacking line, the three players upfront they are very dangerous, you have to be always alert. So, if you open up a little bit too much and give them too much space then they can really punish you. So, we had to attack with a certain control."
