Andile Jali’s long-term agent Mike Makaab has revealed how the ongoing impasse over the player’s future at Mamelodi Sundowns has impacted the midfielder. With just three months left on his contract, Jali’s future remains uncertain as Mokwena refused to comment on the situation, stating that an announcement will be made in due course.
Makaab expressed his desire to resolve the matter as soon as possible, citing the unsettling effect it has had on Jali. The experienced midfielder has not featured in any of Sundowns’ last three matches in the CAF Champions League.
“There is interest, but I’m not prepared to do this in any other way other than to put finality as to whether Mamelodi Sundowns is interested in him going forward and if the answer is no, we’ll respect that and we’ll move on,” Makaab said in an interview with Gagasi FM.
The agent revealed that interest from both local and international clubs has been pouring in for Jali. He added that the most important thing is to bring the situation to an end in the right way.
“If the answer is yes, hopefully we can sit down and come to some sort of conclusion, because it’s unsettling for the player. He doesn’t know where his future lies and that’s understandable. Any player of his calibre, when his contract is coming to an end, will feel uncertain about their future and the most important thing is to bring this to an end – which we’ll do in the right way,” he concluded.
