Aubaas, who played 26 of TS Galaxy’s 30 games last season, has attracted much interest, especially after making his Bafana Bafana debut.

Aubaas no longer Galaxy star

With many fans begging their clubs to bring in the player, The Rockets owner, Tim Sukazi, shocked everyone when he confirmed the player had been sold.

As noted by Goal, Aubaas watched from the stands when Galaxy unveiled their squad for the coming season. Sukazi then explained they had 'found a new home' for the player, but would wait for the other team to confirm the deal.

All eyes will be on Sundowns now to see if they unveil the talented midfielder as their latest signing. The champions have already brought in Lesiba Nku, Junior Mendieta, Thapelo Maseko, and striker Lucas Costa.
