Memela In A Wanted List Of At Least Four PSL Teams
Luvuyo Memela who’s one of the 15 players that were ditched by AmaZulu on the 3rd of June is currently weighing up at least four offers from PSL teams.
Despite being one of the players that have produced solid and splendid performances for Usuthu, the club decided against extending his stay.
Under Benni McCarthy, he was probably the main weapon in their attack producing assists almost in all games and scoring those crucial goals for the team.
As per SABC Sport, Memela has received offers from TS Galaxy, Marumo Gallants, Sekhukhune United, and Maritzburg United.
Basia Michaels confirmed that except from these aforementioned four teams, Memela is being hunted by even more clubs locally.
“Yes, that is true…we have received offers from those clubs you mention and I can tell you that there are a few others that have expressed an interest that you maybe are not aware of,” said Basia Michaels of QT Sport.
“What is important for Memela is that we look at his options for the next two to three years at least, and beyond football – that is our goal and we will not compromise on that.
“We are going to exhaust all our options until we are comfortable with the route Memela takes.”
