A South African starlet is concerned that his lack of game time at Mamelodi Sundowns could have spoilt his chances of gaining an early move to Europe.
Soccer Laduma had previously reported how youngster Jerome Karelse received interest from two Dutch clubs.

Now, his agent Warren Swartz of ProAthlete Management Agency discusses the latest situation with the Siya crew in terms of whether the transfer could go ahead.
"There was interest from European clubs but due to the lack of game time for him, the interest faded. We were hoping by now that he would have featured in the first team to have game time," Swartz told Soccer Laduma.
The agent added that he appreciates the working relationship they have with Sundowns and they also want what is best for the youngster at this point in time.
"We appreciate and respect the relationship we have with Sundowns, and we want to ensure that any discussions about the player's future are conducted in a professional and amicable manner.
"While we are not currently engaged in talks with any other team, it's true that the player has expressed some feelings of unsettlement and is open to exploring new opportunities. We believe in his talent and are confident that should the situation progress to a point where a move is considered, he will attract interest from other clubs," Swartz concluded to Soccer Laduma.
Despite being a regular and a promising youngster for Masandawana's DStv Diski Challenge team, Karelse was only given one chance to play for the senior team and that was when he came in as a late substitute against Orlando Pirates last season.
