Mamelodi Sundowns look set to beat rivals Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates to the signature of TS Galaxy star Lehlohonolo Mojela.
The 27-year-old speedster has been one of the most exciting players in the top flight since making his debut for Galaxy last year.
Mojela has seven goals and one assist in his maiden season at the club. More impressive than his goals and assists, however, is the electric energy he brings to Galaxy’s attack!
And now, after shining for Galaxy, the league’s big boys appear to be lurking! Both Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly interested in signing Mojela; however, the player has picked his preferred next destination! Take a look at what he had to say below.

Mojela prefers Downs over Chiefs and Pirates!
“Maybe they (Sundowns) will sign me,” Mojela said on Metro FM, as quoted by Goal.
“I really want to play for Sundowns, but for now I am focusing on TS Galaxy because that is where I am contracted. I am focusing on my current job.
“But if it were up to me, I would go there to Sundowns. It will depend on what the chairman (Tim Sukazi) decides if Chiefs registered their interest.”
Mojela appears to have taken a major u-turn on Orlando Pirates. The winger was pushing for a move to the Buccaneers just two weeks ago.

According to Soccer Laduma, Percy Tau’s situation at Al Ahly is being closely monitored by the Glamour Boys. Take a look at the details below.

“You management has made it clear that from next season they want to bring in the best players and the best coach so it would not be Tau only, as there are other big name players they are looking at.
“Chiefs are also inquiring to fill up all the positions from goalkeeper, to defenders, midfielders and strikers. But for now, the one I can tell you that we know is on the list is Percy Tau.”
