The South African international is not only a transfer target for the Glamour Boys, as reports claimed that Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates are also being linked with a move for the versatile Bafana Bafana defender.

Moloisane has been a key member of the Stellenbosch FC squad this season, and was part of the team that knocked the Soweto giants out of the Nedbank Cup in the Round of 32 and also the Carling Knockout Cup.

The 27-year-old has racked up 107 appearances for the Stellies since joining them in 2013 from a now-defunct Maritzburg United. In those over 100 appearances, the Bafana Bafana star has found the back of the net four times and also produced three assists.

Moloisane is a free agent amid Chiefs links

Stellenbosch FC are reportedly pushing for Moloisane to sign a new deal with the club, as his current contract with the Stellies would end at the end of the 2025-26 season, which means he would join another club on a free transfer if an agreement is not reached between both parties.

Stellenbosch FC CEO Rob Benadie confirmed that the South African defender is yet to sign the new contract, and the club wants him to stay despite being linked with other top clubs in the PSL.

“To be completely transparent, we want Thabo to stay. We’ve offered him a contract, but he hasn’t signed it yet. This means he is effectively a free agent and is eligible to sign a pre-contract elsewhere,” he said.
“From what I understand through him and his agent, he hasn’t committed to any club so far. We have a limited budget, so if we allocate funds to one player, it affects others. We offered him a competitive deal, and now it’s up to him to decide whether to remain with us or explore other options. We will plan for both outcomes.”
