According to agent Mike Makaab, Jali is currently pondering his future and a decision will be made on what happens next.
Should he decide to continue playing and secure a new club, Makaab guarantees that the former Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns player will be in great shape.
"Andile is pondering his future. He is my 'son' and I know him better than most. He is pondering his future. We've agreed with him and that that should he decide to continue to play, we will make sure we work with him to get him into fantastic shape for the new season. Unless his mind is 100 percent on football, he is not going to commit himself," Makaab said to the Siya crew.
"He has left us with beautiful memories. I don't think he is finished. I think the desire is still there because I know him well. If he decides he wants to continue, then he will start the season in great shape."
