South African club interested in Jesse Were signature

South African side Ajax Cape Town are interested in the signature of Kenyan striker Jesse Were.

Were, who currently plies his trade with Zambian champions Zesco United, has a buy-out clause of Sh16 million having extended his stay in Zambia for a further two-years last July.

Were was also in the rudder of Free State Stars, who have withdrawn their interest due to the buyout clause, leaving The Urban Warriors at the forefront to land the 28-year-old, according to South Africa publication, Kick-off.

Ajax turned their attention to Were after missing the signature of Malian forward Mohammed Diallo. Were has scored 34 goals in the last two years at Zesco United in the Zambian Super League.
