PSL negotiations with Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates-linked DR Congo forward confirmed as Moroccan clubs also join bid

Tafic forward Jean Lwamba has issued a come-get-me plea to Premier Soccer League clubs amid interest from Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates.

According to Tafic chairman Tumelo Toteng, they are negotiating with three PSL clubs interested in the striker from DR Congo, and some Moroccan teams have also joined the race for his signature.

"There is a lot of interest. A few teams have shown interest, and we are currently engaged in negotiations with three PSL clubs," Toteng told KickOff. 

"Additionally, two teams from Morocco have expressed their interest in the player.  We expect to finalise everything by this Friday [20 June].

"We have agreed on confidentiality until the terms have been finalised. Lwamba is ready for the next step, whether that is in South Africa, North Africa, or Europe. He plays as a striker, but he is also comfortable on the wing," he added. 

"His main strengths are his ability to retain the ball through strength and skill, linking play effectively, and possessing ruthless aggression in front of goal."

Lwamba scored 15 goals in the Botswana Premier League last season to show his pedigree.

Although that was achieved in a league far less regarded than the PSL, he is still a proven scorer who could shine in South Africa.

Interestingly, Chiefs already have a Congolese forward in Glody Lilepo might want to add another.

It is to be seen if Lwamba will choose the PSL, Morocco or Europe, where he has ultimately set his eyes.

At 28, he might want to make a move now, and the current transfer window will tell which club the forward will go to as clubs scramble for players.
