Following a trial period with the Clever Boys, sources have indicated that the midfielder has impressed the Wits technical team and that he is close to completing a deal with the club.
“I can tell you that Polokwane were looking at him but are no longer in a position to sign him. He has however impressed at Wits and it looks like they will be making an offer to sign him,” said a source.
Meanwhile, the crew has reported that the side is also keen on signing Mxolisi Macuphu from Chippa United in a bid to bolster the squad following a disappointing season where they finished in 13th spot.
