Orlando Pirates have put the PSL on notice with their transfer business so far, sealing deals at some rate in response to Kaizer Chiefs.
Here we wrap the latest PSL transfer rumours, football gossip and confirmed signings.
Tuks defender Keegan Allan has reportedly drawn attention from Italian clubs on top of being on Orlando Pirates’ wishlist.
Allan is on the radar of the PSL’s biggest clubs but interest from abroad could see Orlando Pirates lose out.
Soccer Laduma’s Masebe Qina reports: “After emerging as one of the top performers in the University of Pretoria’s failed promotion bid, former Mamelodi Sundowns development player Keegan Allan has attracted interest from Pirates and a few other clubs in the DStv Premiership.
“However, the 21-year-old has been assessing his options with a view of securing a European move i n his next deal, as confirmed by sources in the know.
“News reaching the Siya crew is that the centre-back has attracted interest from Italy, with Serie A clubs Hellas Verona and Spezia Calcio understood to be keen on his services for the 2022/23 season.”
The young prospect’s agent Mohammed Lawal has confirmed that local and overseas clubs have expressed an interest in Allan.
“We are aware of the interest in Keegan Allan both locally and internationally. We are working hard to see Keegan taking his career to the next level, be it locally or overseas,” said Lawal.
Orlando Pirates have snuck in to hijack a pair of signings from Kaizer Chiefs.
The young North West duo had been on trial at Naturena but Kaizer Chiefs were caught napping as the Sea Robbers trumped them with a last-minute offer.
Sekhukhune United have joined the party and announced six signings.
Among the signings are a pair of former Pirates’ players.
A teenaged Kaizer Chiefs player is drawing interest from the PSL champions.
The young player is also said to be wanted by Pirates.
Golden Arrows claim that Kaizer Chiefs have inflated the sum offered to them for a star player.
Arrows insist that the Glamour Boys have failed to meet the valuation for the player.
