Free State Stars midfielder, Katlego Mashego, has put an official request to the club's management to release him.
The Burgersfort-born player has been linked with a big move to Gauteng for some time, with Kaizer Chiefs having been linked to the former South African international in the past.
According to a Soccer Laduma source in the know, the 27-year-old is tired of staying in Bethlehem and requested to be released to look for another club in a different environment.
Orlando Pirates, AmaZulu, Platinum Stars and Ajax Cape Town have been sniffing around hoping to land the player's signature, should he become available.
Mashego came back strongly and made great progress in his career since recovering from the horrific leg injury he suffered in 2012.
He made 21 league starts for Ea Lla Koto in the 2013/14 season, and played a key part in their relegation battle in the team's final games of the campaign.
