European Interest Grows in Puso Dithejane Amid Breakout Season at TS Galaxy

A rising South African star is catching the attention of clubs across the globe, with fresh reports suggesting that TS Galaxy’s Puso Dithejane is now firmly on the radar of a new European suitor. The 20-year-old winger, who has enjoyed a standout season in the DStv Premiership, is quickly becoming one of the country’s most talked-about prospects.

Dithejane’s rapid rise has already earned him a call-up to Hugo Broos’ preliminary Bafana Bafana squad for the upcoming international friendlies in June, a reward for his consistent performances and attacking flair. His journey from the Kaizer Chiefs youth setup to first-team regular at TS Galaxy has not gone unnoticed—both locally and abroad.

According to Siya sources, a fresh wave of interest has emerged from Europe. While Augsburg FC of Germany had already expressed interest in the talented wide man, insiders have now revealed that another, currently unnamed European club has made initial contact regarding the player’s availability.

“There is interest from Europe. Not Augsburg this time, it’s another team. I don’t know the name, but I know it’s real. And as you know, the club chairman gives his players the chance to go abroad. Puso could be the next one,” a source close to the situation told Soccer Laduma.

Closer to home, Dithejane continues to be linked with a return to his roots at Kaizer Chiefs, while Mamelodi Sundowns are also said to be monitoring his progress. However, it appears that both local giants may be outpaced by the stronger pull of Europe.

“Chiefs and Sundowns are still interested, yes, but right now there’s nothing concrete. The interest from overseas seems more serious at this point,” another insider confirmed.

Having joined TS Galaxy in January of last year, Dithejane has gone from strength to strength. In his first full season with the club, which concludes on Saturday, 24 May, he has featured in nearly every match, becoming a key component of The Rockets’ attacking setup.

TS Galaxy’s growing reputation as a launchpad for young talent is underscored by the winger’s meteoric development. The club’s willingness to facilitate international moves—championed by chairman Tim Sukazi—could be pivotal in shaping the next phase of Dithejane’s career.

The potential departure of the winger would mark a major success story for the Mpumalanga-based side, especially considering Dithejane’s early career struggles after being released by Kaizer Chiefs. His transformation into a national team-calibre player and a coveted European prospect speaks volumes about both his resilience and TS Galaxy’s talent nurturing system.

As transfer speculation intensifies and the window approaches, all eyes will be on TS Galaxy and their young star. Whether he stays in South Africa a while longer or secures a dream move to Europe, one thing is certain—Puso Dithejane is a name that will continue to resonate in South African football and beyond.
