“Someone told him about Chiefs looking to sign him some time last season, but he didn’t really believe it. He started to believe a couple of weeks ago after another person from the club asked if he would be happy to join Chiefs," said the source.

Maart still has a contract to honour at Sekhukhune for the next two years but the source is hopeful that the deal will happen, even in 2023. Chiefs really need to change their approach if they are challenging for the league.
