The Tunisian mentor is aware that Tau has one year left on his contract with Al Ahly but confirmed that Amakhosi is not in talks with the Bafana Bafana star because of their respect for the Egyptian club.
"There are no negotiations with Percy Tau because I believe he still has one year left on his contract," the former Yanga SC gaffer confirmed.
"Kaizer Chiefs respects the FIFA rules. If ever there's an opportunity to sign him, it will be through official channels. We respect Al Ahly; they are a great team."
Mayele worked with Nabi during his time with Tanzanian champions Young Africans SC but stated that it's the same situation as Tau, as they are not in negotiations with Pyramids F.C. for the DR Congo striker amid reports claiming the Soweto giants submitted an offer.
"It's the same situation with Fiston Mayele," he added.
"He's like family to me; we worked well together [at Young Africans]. But he has a contract with Pyramids, and he's not available. We respect that and have not engaged in any negotiations."
