Former Kaizer Chiefs trialist, Stanley Ratifo, could be back in Mzansi to finalise a move to one of the PSL clubs, the Siya crew can exclusively reveal.
In December 2022, Ratifo went to Chiefs for trials under then head coach Arthur Zwane in the hope of securing a contract for the second half of last season.

Ratifo is currently with the Mozambican national team at the Africa Cup of Nations and played as the Mambas played to an emphatic 2-2 draw against Egypt in their opening match on Sunday.
The 29-year-old plays his club football for 1.CfR Pforzheim in Germany in the lower divisions and indications are that Polokwane City is keen on his services.
"Stanley Ratifo is the Mozambican striker who was on the radar of Kaizer Chiefs last season and came close to joining the club. He attended trials at Chiefs last season and did well, but the deal fell through," said the source.

"There is another opportunity for him to come and play in the PSL as there have been a few enquiries made on his availability. Polokwane City is one of the clubs that have showed serious interest. The player is currently with Mozambican national team at the Afcon and you can expect negotiations to resume once he and the team are finished there," the source added.
As reported by the Siya crew, Rise and Shine have already concluded a deal with ex-Chiefs midfielder Cole Alexander for his return to the PSL from Helsingborgs IF of Sweden for his second stint with the Limpopo outfit.
