Kaizer Chiefs Marketing Director Jessica Motaung says the club is taking a professional approach to the transfer saga involving Luke Baartman and Asanele Velebayi.
With Cape Town Spurs relegated ABC Motsepe League, the duo could very well be free agents pending the Premier Soccer League Dispute Resolution Committee (DRC) hearing. The Urban Warriors argue that the players are still contracted with the team and if a club wants their services, they should buy them.
Motaung says Kaizer Chiefs will wait for the outcome of the hearing.
“I think what’s important is that we’re in the business of doing things that won’t interfere with other clubs, we want to follow certain procedures and that relates to any other player we’re looking at,” she told the media.
“So, we’re taking a very professional approach in terms of integrating and bringing the players into the team, so we will make sure we only make announcements when the time is right – so watch this space.
Can Kaizer Chiefs snatch CT Spurs duo?
“But certainly, we can’t be engaging on players who are still with teams or still contracted. once there are any changes we will make those announcements. There’s a process; it needs to be followed, once it’s done, we will make announcements.”
Should Chiefs sign the duo?
