Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates are both believed to be on the hunt for a new striker ahead of next season.
Both Chiefs and Pirates were looking to make a striker signing even last season during this window.
Chiefs and Pirates looking for a striker
But in the end, neither Chiefs or Pirates were able to make that signing. Amakhosi went on to rely on Ranga Chivaviro, Ashley du Preez and Wandile Duba. Then in January a striker finally did arrive in Tashreeq Morris, but to no help. A winger in the sense of Glody Lilepo had the desired impact though, with five goals.
Pirates remained with Evidence Makgopa, Tshegofatso Mabasa and Boitumelo Radiopane. Zakhele Lepasawas injured for the bulk of the season and didn’t play a game. Now that the transfer market is open again, the Buccaneers and their arch rivals Chiefs have resumed their search. And now a striker from the Botswana top flight has put his and up to sign for either side.
Lwamba offers his services
“Whoever is interested will have to just talk to my agent and my club, I play centre-forward, right-winger, and left-winger. I can’t talk too much about myself though because I know myself and what I can do. I can make it anywhere in South Africa, even at Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, I can play. But as a football player I prefer to do my talking on the pitch. I can’t promise how many goals I can score in the PSL per season, but give me a chance you will see. I’m ready.” Said Congolese striker Jean Lwambato KickOff.com.
Worth a look for the Soweto giants?
Lwamba was the top goal score and was named player of the season in the Botswana League. This after scoring 15 goals. Should Chiefs or Pirates take a chance on him?
