The Siya crew have been informed that the Amakhosi did make inroads regarding the possibility of landing the 27-year-old in the January transfer window, given the fact that he has only played 37 minutes of football in the Serie A this season.

Mariga, who is the older brother of Southampton star, Victor Wanyama, worked with Stuart Baxter when they were at Helsingborgs IF together, and it is thought that the Englishman was eager to bring him on board.

The midfielder signed for Inter Milan for £8.8 million back in 2010, going on to become the first Kenyan to ever player in the UEFA Champions League, however re-signed for Parma earlier this year after being released by the Nerazzurri.

Baxter and Mariga won the Swedish Cup final together back in 2006, and while the Englishman was keen to see a reunion, the Siya crew has been informed that his wages at Parma are too big to match, even in a loan deal.
