The club was expected to sign the 26-year-old midfielder last season, but his club Sekhukhune United were determined to keep their number six.
With the next transfer window coming up, and with the likes of Phathutshedzo Nange and Cole Alexandra not sparkling for Kaizer Chiefs so far, Maart is still wanted.
“Kaizer Chiefs are set to step up their pursuit of Sekhukhune United captain Yusuf Maart at the end of the season,” said Soccer Laduma in their latest weekly issue.

“According to information made available to the crew, Maart’s contract with Babina Noko runs until June 2023, and it has an option to extend it for another year,” the outlet added.
The 26-year-old player’s contract situation means Kaizer Chiefs will have to table a transfer fee, which should be rather big considering his talent and Bafana Bafana profile.
