The Brazilians are always active in the transfer market, and during the last January transfer window, they brought in Monnapule Saleng from Orlando Pirates and Brayan Leon from South American club Independiente Medellín, which has helped them put more pressure on the Sea Robbers in the Betway Premiership race.

Kaizer Chiefs, on the other hand, had a silent January transfer window as they only brought in Xhosa Manyana on loan from Cape Town City and would mostly be representing the club's DStv Diski Challenge side.

Some of Ndlovu's strengths that caught the attention of top sides are his speed, inventiveness, and sharp finishing. He has scored 4 goals and recorded 5 assists in 19 appearances across all competitions this season.

Reports indicate that the Brazilians have submitted a substantial offer to Golden Arrows in an attempt to lure him to Chloorkop in the summer as they hope to bolster their attacking options next season.

Ndwandwe reacts as top clubs circle Ndlovu

Golden Arrows senior midfielder Velemseni Ndwandwe insists the speculation linking Ndlovu to Mamelodi Sundowns, Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates has not affected the player’s conduct.

Interest in the South African winger has escalated in recent weeks, but he remained focused and professional.

“Ndlovu is easily one of the most professional players I’ve encountered in my career,” Ndwandwe stated.
“He plays a decisive role in our victories, yet he remains extremely grounded. Even after training sessions, he puts in extra work. You wouldn’t think he’s being pursued by other clubs based on his attitude,” he added.

Ndwandwe further noted that transfer talk is nothing unusual at the club.

“We’ve experienced this kind of situation before at Golden Arrows. Many players have previously been linked with moves elsewhere. What stands out with Ndlovu is his level of maturity—it reflects strongly on his character,” he said.
