Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates and Sundowns chase for Mayele

Pyramids striker Fiston Mayele is not only a target for Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs, but it appears that Mamelodi Sundowns have joined the race for the Congolese star.

Mayele played a crucial role in the Egyptians reaching the CAF Champions League final. His brace against the Buccaneers in the second leg of the semi-final showcased his class and quality.

With three big teams in South Africa interested in his services, it remains to be seen if the Congolese striker will leave Egypt for PSL.

Chiefs might be favourites to land Mayele

The 30-year-old forward was initially linked with Amakhosi. Former SuperSport United coach Havin Hunt said only two teams in SA could afford the striker, but felt Mayele could help Kaizer Chiefs if he signed for the Soweto giants.

“In the PSL, I think he can be a 30-goal striker, I really do. I think he’ll make goals on his own, by just movement, strength and power. [If he signs for Kaizer Chiefs] they win a treble,” he said.

“There are two teams in the PSL that can afford him,” Hunt added.

In the past year, Kaizer Chiefs have been linked to Mayele. With only a year left in his contract, it might be the perfect time to buy the Congolese star, given Pyramids’ will to sell.
