According to the report, Chiefs offered a player plus cash deal to Amazulu for the Sithebe’s services, but this was rejected.

According to the player’s agent, Musawakhe Sithebe, the clubs could not agree on a new deal either. He added that he hoped Sithebe would not be sidelined at Amazulu as a result of the ongoing transfer saga.

With the transfer window closing at midnight, time is running out for Chiefs to sign the midfielder. KickOff reports that a source within the Amazulu camp is expecting a deal to be reached before midnight though.

Amazulu Chairman Sandile Zungu confirmed to KickOff that Chiefs had offered Amazulu two players in exchange for Sithebe but he turned down the offer because the club was not interested in signing 'rejects'.

The Citizen confirmed that Sithebe has signed a pre-contract with Chiefs and will join them in June when the season ends. The Amakhosi were looking to secure the player's services during the January transfer window though after losing out Teboho Mokoena's signature to Mamelodi Sundowns.
