Bafana Bafana star Elias Mokwana gives Kaizer Chiefs future transfer hope ahead of Esperance's Caf Champions League clash with Mamelodi Sundowns - 'The dream is still there, in the future I might go'

Kaizer Chiefs were after the signature of Elias Mokwana but the Bafana Bafana winger chose to sign for Esperance from Sekhukhune United before the start of the 2024/25 season.

The 25-year-old seems to be enjoying life in Tunis where he is now a regular for the Blood and Gold, after a tough start to life in Tunisia.

However, Mokwana has not completely shut out Chiefs from signing him in future.

“Eish, this one’s going to put me in trouble,” Mokwana told iDiski Times. 

“To tell you the truth, my father was an Orlando Pirates fan and I was a Chiefs fan, now you can see.

“When they said Chiefs wanted me, I was happy. Unfortunately, it never happened, but the dream is still there. In the future, I might go.”

Mokwana has June's Fifa Club World Cup as arguably the biggest football event to look forward to this year.

But after that tournament, it is to be seen if he will consider a move away from Tunis.

With Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi trying to build a competitive side for next season, they might turn to Mokwana, although Esperance are likely to hold on to him and he could prove to be expensive for the Soweto giants.

Esperance are preparing to face Mamelodi Sundowns in next Tuesday's Caf Champions League quarter-final, first-leg tie at Loftus Versfeld.

It is a match Mokwana would want to shine in front of a crowd which knows him very well.
