Mamelodi Sundowns are believed to be intensifying their efforts to secure Stellenbosch FC and Bafana Bafana midfielder Jayden Adams, according to insiders privy to information.
Siya sources have indicated that the Brazilians are set to increase the offer that they initially hoped to make. This is to persuade Stellies to part with one of their key players, considering that the Western Cape side has been repeatedly talking about keeping their best performers.

As previously reported by Soccer Laduma, Sundowns' interest in Adams has been there, and insiders now provide the latest on the situation.
"It will all go down to what Stellenbosch FC want at the end of the day because Sundowns are really interested in the player. They haven't stopped talking to the necessary people for the move to happen before the window registration period closes in September. Yes, Stellenbosch say he is not for sale but if Sundowns offer the right price then he could end up at Chloorkop. They are serious about him and they want him this season," the Siya source stated.
Additionally, a second insider close to Adams indicated that the midfielder himself is considering the move as a significant step for his career and future.
"As for the player, it's about securing his future as a player as well as a person. So, he has interest to move to Sundowns but he is still contracted to Stellenbosch and they are the ones to make the final decision though it will all depend on the money that Sundowns will offer before the end of the transfer window period. Sundowns want him and he wants Sundowns," the second source stated.

Soccer Laduma reached out to Adams' agent, Michael Costa of Forwardzone Sports Agency, who confirmed the ongoing interest from Sundowns.
"There is still interest but nothing concrete (in terms of an offer) at this point," Costa told the Siya crew.
