According to a KickOff source, Shabalala nearly joined Belgian side KVC Westerlo recently, while other clubs across Europe have shown an interest.

The source said:

"Shabalala still fits the profile of what will win him a move but has been encouraged to do more than just enjoy the comforts of being on the books of Chiefs. The youth international was previously wanted by Belgian club KVC Westerlo after impressing during trials, but the deal eventually didn't happen due to transfer clause-related matters."

Fans back Shabalala to leave Chiefs

Amakhosi fans, who have given up hope they will finish in the top eight of the PSL this season, wish the young midfielder good luck regarding a possible move to Europe.
