After parting ways with several players through free agency and transfers to Sekhukhune United and Orlando Pirates, TS Galaxy could potentially lose another key performer from last season's squad.
Sources close to the club have indicated that a Rockets defender has attracted significant local interest following previous reported inquiries from European clubs.

The insiders added that Bafana Bafana defender Khulumani Ndamane is being monitored by both Sekhukhune United and Orlando Pirates, with a potential move before the new season starts.
"There are two clubs that have shown interest in the defender. Yes, there was interest from Europe but I can't say what really happened but the enquiries from Orlando Pirates and Sekhukhune United are what stands out at the moment. So let's wait and see what happens next on Ndamane," the insider told Soccer Laduma.
Meanwhile, a second source stated that Rockets are reluctant to part ways with their promising defender, particularly if it means strengthening a direct competitor in the Betway Premiership.

"As much as there has been interest and enquiries, it's believed that Galaxy are making sure they hold onto him but since this is football, anything could happen. But if there is an overseas club that comes through, then that would be the first priority," the second insider revealed.
The talented defender joined Rockets from Kaizer Chiefs' DDC setup and made an immediate impact in his debut PSL season, featuring in the vast majority of the matches. The 21-year-old's impressive performances earned him a Bafana Bafana call-up and an international debut, further enhancing his reputation and market value.
Soccer Laduma contacted TS Galaxy and Pirates for comment but received no response at the time of publishing this story.
