Kaizer Chiefs have been linked with Orlando Pirates striker Zakhele Lepasa over a possible move in the winter transfer window.

Lepasa has struggled to get playing time at the Bucs this season, as he's yet to feature in any official game for the Soweto Giants.

The South African forward was linked with some Premier Soccer League sides during the summer transfer window, with SuperSport United and Chippa United included on the list.

According to a report by the South African, Kaizer Chiefs are linked with a sensational swoop for Lepasa in January.

The summer transfer window is closed, and Lepasa is not a free agent, which would have allowed the Glamour Boys to sign him.

The Bafana Bafana star is still on contract with Pirates, and he's reportedly in the plans for Jose Riveiro despite rumours that he may not be involved.

Nasreddine Nabi confirmed after their 2-1 win over Marumo Gallants FC in their Betway Premiership opener that Amakhosi still needs a striker and a winger, but they could not sign anyone before the transfer window closed.

A source told Kick Off that Lepasa is one of the strikers Kaizer Chiefs are interested in signing and could revisit the transfer deal in January.
