The 34-year-old has been with Matsatsantsa since January 2013, but he is fast approaching the end of his contract, which expires in June 2023, where the club would have to make a decision on his future.
Despite his advanced age, Grobler has once again found himself among the goals this season and has racked up six goals and one assist in 13 matches in all competitions, an impressive ratio of one goal every two games.
According to his coach Hunt, the former Gotzepe striker would have been the PSL's leading goalscorer for every season since 2017, had injuries not plagued his career.
"I wish Bradley was 18 – but it is what it is," Hunt told journalists at last week's Walter Sisulu Discovery Tournament launch.
"If he had played every season fit, he would have been top goalscorer in South Africa for the last five years, but he is still for me, a very good finisher and a very good player, but I mean we got to get him fit, you know," he said.
The 2020/21 DStv Premiership Golden Boot winner is entering the last six months of his contract and Hunt is keen on holding onto the predatory sniper.
"That's for the powers that be. I know my feeling. Of course, you keep him," Hunt added.
