Elsewhere, Sage Stephens, who will see his contract with Cape Town City come to an end at the end of this season, has also been strongly linked with a move to Stellenbosch FC as he goes in search of regular game-time, however, will have to endure even longer before making the move.
Leonardo Castro has also been linked with a move away from Chiefs, with Sundowns' emerging as an interested suitor and while he is assessing his options, which includes staying at Amakhosi, he will need to wait after the season draws to a close, should he want to continue with his professional career elsewhere.
