A top-rated forward, who has been linked with Kaizer Chiefs, has informed them that he will consider joining only if they present him with a good offer.
It is understandable that Amakhosi will be making several signings in the upcoming weeks after the appointment of head coach Nasreddine Nabi.
The club’s marketing manager Jessica Motaung recently revealed that the club hasn’t made any signings because that is a responsibility for the newly-appointed coach.
Reports suggest that Amakhosi have been sniffing around AS FAR Rabat striker Tumisang Orebonye. Last season, he was playing under Chiefs new coach Nabi.
Orebonye has expressed his willingness to join Amakhosi if they present him with an offer compelling enough to make him overlook the CAF Champions League opportunity he has with FAR Rabat in the upcoming season.
BOTSWANAN STRIKER TELLS CHIEFS TO TABLE GOOD OFFER
“Yeah, there have been those reports about me moving to Chiefs in South Africa and I don't have a problem with that,” Orebonye told Soccer Laduma.
“But there has been no offer at the moment. If the offer can be good I don't see any problem why I can't join Chiefs.
“Yes, I know the coach and I know the team since I am from Botswana. But what is important is the money. If the money is good I can move to Chiefs.
“I am 28-years-old now and I don't want to play until I am 40 years just because I didn't make enough money now. In a few years time when I retire I should invest they money in my own things so moving to South Africa would not be a problem. But as I have said, it has to be the right offer because I still have a valid contract here in Morocco.
“I signed a two and half year contract when I joined from Algeria and it's ending in June 2026.
“So, only a good offer will move me. Above all, I will be playing in the CAF Champions League next season and the offer has to be better than that for me to be attracted. But in football anything is possible and I can still move to Chiefs.”
Bongani Sam is currently the only new face in the Chiefs team. However, it’s still uncertain whether he has completed a move to the Soweto giants.
