Bafana Bafana and Royal AM star striker Victor Letsoalo has opened regarding rumours of a sensational move to Kaizer Chiefs during the previous transfer window.
Letsoalo finished the season with 11 goals in all competitions and was heavily linked with a move to Kaizer Chiefs following their striking crisis.
The Glamour Boys were without regular strikers Leonardo Castro and Samir Nurkovic through injury for much of the first half of the campaign.
Letsoalo was tipped to seal a move away from Bloemfontein Celtic to free up funds for the troubled team however the club was then purchased by Royal AM.
The reported Kaizer Chiefs target already has eight goals so far this season however he has since cleared the air regarding links to the Amakhosi!
Kaizer Chiefs never approached me! – Letsoalo
“That one, it was just a rumour. I have never been in any contact with Kaizer Chiefs or even my agent. We never know about that, it was just a rumour.” – the Royal AM star told SAFM during an interview.
“I did not take it serious because a rumour is a rumour. I just had to work because my contract was here. I just had to focus where I am.”
It’s going to be tough – Letsoalo
“It’s going to be a tough game this one. We haven’t been winning so far, and they have been winning, so it’s going to be a tough game,” Letsoalo said ahead of Royal AM’s clash with Kaizer Chiefs on Sunday.
“I just take it as a game comes and then scoring goals is a good thing as a forward player, and I’m grateful that I’m scoring goals.
“I want to score every game against any team if it’s possible. It’s not about which team I love scoring against or what but even if I score against Kaizer Chiefs it’s a nice record.”
Royal AM host the Glamour Boys on Sunday afternoon at the Chatsworth Stadium. Kick-off is scheduled for 15:30. The last time Kaizer Chiefs and Royal AM met, The Spice People triumphed with an emphatic 4-1 victory earlier this season.
