In a recent interview with South African media outlet, KickOff, the former Orlando Pirates head coach said he expects the 32-year-old Namibian international to end up at one of the two Premier Soccer League giants this summer.
"I definitely believe it's Chiefs or Pirates for Shalulile, it's one of the two," the veterean coach said.
"I recommend him to go anywhere between the two teams. That boy has something others don't. He is special. It's just a pity Sundowns might have enough players, but he is a quality player. He has a lot to offer."
The veteran PSL coach also highlighted Shalulile's proven goalscoring record, insisting the striker no longer has anything left to prove in South African football.
"He brings pedigree and has shown over many years that he is a top goalscorer. He isn't just another foreign striker arriving in the PSL to prove himself. He has already done that," he added.

Da Gama believes the former Sundowns star would seamlessly fit into either the Kaizer Chiefs or Orlando Pirates squad because of his professionalism, discipline and work ethic.
"It doesn't matter where he goes, he will fit in anywhere. He's a very disciplined player and a very humble person. It all depends on which club decides to sign him. If Chiefs want him and Pirates don't, or vice versa, then his agent must make it happen," Da Gama said.
"If you sign him, you're getting a highly disciplined professional. That boy can still play until he's 45."
