Word reaching the Siya crew is that Maritzburg United may look to bring SuperSport United midfielder, Ashley Hartog, on board in the new season.
The 30-year-old featured in around half of Matsatsantsa’s league games in their past campaign, under Gavin Hunt, however with the signings of Thuso Phala, David Mathebula, Enocent Mkhabela and Bennett Chenene, it seems that his chances of breaking into the first team this time around may have been depleted.
A source at Maritzburg, who wished to remain anonymous, told the Siya crew, “I’ve heard the rumours about Ashley Hartog maybe joining us.”
Meanwhile, a separate source at SuperSport confirmed that the Capetonian midfield man hadn’t been at training.
It remains to be seen whether a move to The Team of Choice will materialise for Hartog, but it is believed that he could make a move to Pietermaritzburg in the next week or so.
