According to reports, former Kaizer Chiefs target Fiston Kalala Mayele
could be the subject of interest from two other teams in the South African
Premiership. The DR Congo international has reportedly been tracked by
Amakhosi and is still keen on plying his trade in the elite league come
next season.
A source close to the player’s camp has indicated that both AmaZulu and
SuperSport United have entered the race for the player’s signature. The
source told the Siya crew, “I don’t want to drag the names for now, but I
can confide in you that these two teams have been monitoring the player.
What I know is that they have contacts in Tanzania who update them on the
player’s progress and if all goes well without hiccups, he will join one
of them. But it will also depend on Yanga, as they have an option to renew
his contract which expires in August this year.”
Mayela, 28, joined Yanga in 2021 and was the Tanzanian Premier League’s
second top goalscorer last season. It is understood that Chiefs made an
approach for the attacker, but the deal fell through due to a failure to
agree on terms.
