Gardner Seale, a former Kaizer Chiefs defender, says that Amakhosi must make a strong effort to capture Orlando Pirates' Thembinkosi Lorch.

For a long time, Thembinkosi Lorch has been connected with a move away from the Buccaneers, but no team has been able to persuade the Buccaneers to let their top player depart.

Seale, on the other hand, believes that the energetic winger is just what the Amakhosi require and that the club should utilise all of its resources to persuade Lorch to join the Soweto club.

“I know I’m dreaming, but if available, we’d have a complete Kaizer Chiefs in Alexander Cole, Bradley Grobler and Thembinkosi Lorch,” Gardner Seale said to KickOff.

Thembinkosi Lorch recently submitted a transfer request to the Orlando Pirates, but any potential transaction would have to make sense for the parties involved according to The South African.

Thembinkosi Lorch would cost Kaizer Chiefs or other possible bidders around R15 million, according to football valuation site Transfermarkt. Since joining Orlando Pirates, Thembinkosi Lorch has made over 120 appearances for the club, scoring 28 goals and assisting on another 22.
