Serero is considering a PSL return, according to the tweet below:

According to a KickOff source, Serero could join a PSL side, following in the footsteps of new Mamelodi Sundowns star Kobamelo Kodisang, who returned to Mzansi after playing abroad.

The source said:

"Several options are being explored locally and will have money matters attached, with the coastal pair of Richards Bay and AmaZulu FC having already been identified."

Fans are divided about Serero

Local football fans shared their opinions on social media, with some saying the player could be a PSL star while others felt the 34-year-old had passed his sell-by date.

Sekgoane Malefahlo thinks it will be a wrong move:

"These big names, when they return, they normally have so little to give and may hinder control of the team discipline. They are given preferential treatment, which normally dents teamwork and morale."

Molao Kgatello praised Serero:

"People like to underestimate players because of their age, but this one can still come to PSL and win a midfielder of the season award at the end of the season. Cream is one of the best players South Africa has ever produced."

"He must hang up his boots and enjoy his pension fund. Because he won't do well in the PSL."
