Sundowns already have a plethora of Bafana players at their disposal and are just moments away from signing Jayden Adams!
Adams a long-term target for Sundowns
Adams was subject of intense speculation from Sundowns in the previous window. However, after losing key players in Iqraam Rayners and Deano van Rooyen Stellenbosch were reluctant to let him go. It is believed that a bid of up to R30 million was put on the table to try and entice the player to join the Brazilians. Now according to iDiski Times, the two clubs have now reached an agreement for his services. All that is missing is an agreement on the player’s personal terms. That is not expected to be a problem, however.
