PSL Club Boss Confirms Kaizer Chiefs Contact With South African Forward

  • TS Galaxy chairman Tim Sukazi has opened up about Kaizer Chiefs' secret approach to his player, Puso Dithejane, in this January transfer window
  • The Premier Soccer League club owner claimed the Soweto giants are already making a move by approaching his player in various forms
  • The details released by Sukazi sparked mixed reactions from PSL followers on social media, and it came as a surprise to some who believe Bobby Motaung's update

Although Kaizer Chiefs’ CEO Bobby Motaung previously stated that the club would not be very active in the January transfer window, recent reports suggest they are eyeing a promising young talent.

Motaung had mentioned that the club would avoid unnecessary activity in the market but added that they wouldn’t hesitate to sign a top-quality player if the opportunity arose.

It appears the Chiefs are acting on that approach, as reports surfaced on Sunday evening linking them to the potential return of former player Puso Dithejane from TS Galaxy.

TS Galaxy chairman Tim Sukazi revealed that Chiefs officials have been making discreet attempts to bring Dithejane back to Naturena, although he expressed displeasure with how the club is handling the negotiations.

“Many journalists are reporting that he might return to Kaizer Chiefs. Yesterday, I met with him, and he showed me several missed calls from Kaizer Jr., as well as one from Tera Maliwa, the club’s scout. His father also contacted me, mentioning he had received a call from Bobby [Motaung],” Sukazi told Ikwekwezi radio, according to Kick Off.

“He even had a missed call from Coach Vela Khumalo. It seems Kaizer Chiefs are still in the process of convincing him. Bobby has reached out to Dithejane’s father, who suggested that he speak with me directly about the player.”

The news about Kaizer Chiefs showing interest in Dithejane came as a surprise to many after Motaung had claimed the club are not considering signing any player in the January transfer window.

Boby: We're not signing any players. We signed a lot of players during preseason, some of them haven't made their debut for the club.

Apparently, Tim Sukazi wants R10 million. Kaizer Chiefs are dragging their feet because they believe they can't pay so much for a player they developed

Dithejane should make a wise decision! Sundowns & Pirates have too many quality players, which poses a serious competition for game time. At Chiefs, he can easily make a starting line-up. Besides, the Chiefs pay good salaries. About Sundowns prison; ask Jayden Adams, Basadien, Kodisang, De Reuck, Mkhulise, Mkhuma, Mvala, Cotzee, Maboe, Mobbie, Ighodaro, Sfiso Ngobeni; Grant Mergeman. The list is endless. The list is endless. About Pirates prison ask: Goodman Mosele; Bandile Shandu; Thabiso Monyane; Paseka Mako; Innocent Maela; Thapelo Xoki; Van Rooyen; Sakhele Lepasa; lately Tshegofatso Mabasa & many more I have forgotten. Maybe Sebelebele is injured.

The South African international has had limited playing time this season, and a move away from the club in the second half of the campaign could be beneficial to him.
