Already, the Buccaneers are expected to finalise a deal with Congolese midfielder Karim Kimvuidi after the impressive first season he has had in Mzansi, while indications from sources are that Human is also on the radar of the Soweto giants.

As previously reported by the Siya crew, Human has also been on the radar of Kaizer Chiefs and SuperSport United, among other potential suitors. 

In 2019, Bucs managed to sign both Fortune Makaringe and Siphesihle Ndlovu who were among the top players for Maritzburg at the time, while the relationship between the two clubs over recent years has strengthened with more players having moved between Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal frequently ever since.
