According to a Briefly News source at Sundowns, Rayners is valued at the club, and there is doubt that the PSL champions will sell the star they signed at the start of the 2024/205 season.
The source said:
“There was interest in Ikie from overseas before he moved to Sundowns, but I cannot say if it was from the same club or not, and I am not sure why the deal did not go through. Since then, he has proven to be an important player for the club, and it will be hard to see them selling him so soon after he joins them.”
