Kaizer Chiefs could be set to lose one of their young players in Takalani Mazhamba, the Siya crew has learnt.
Mazhamba is a young goalkeeper whose progress in the Chiefs development has been evident and remarkable. While Amakhosi have taken time to make a decision on promoting the 16-year-old shot-stopper to the senior team, indications from close sources are that the player is attracting interest from a few clubs in the DStv Premiership, including Mamelodi Sundowns.
With the Brazilians expected to lose some of the players at the end of the season, including veteran goalkeeper Denis Onyango, the club is understood to be on a search for more players to strengthen the squad for next season.
"Takalani Mazhamba is a very good young goalkeeper whose future in the football is bright. There are clubs that are interested in him, and Sundowns is one of them," said the source.
"The boy is happy at Chiefs and is appreciative of everything that the club has done for him, but he would be open to opportunities for first team football elsewhere if it doesn't happen at the club. The next few weeks will be crucial for him to decide his future," the source said.
