Happy Jele Will Wait for The Right Team Before Signing! The veteran defender remains without a club still.
Happy Jele left Orlando Pirates in the recent transfer window after a 15-year spell with the Soweto giants. He has been without a club since then and he is waiting for the right club, before making any decisions.
After leaving the Buccaneers, many in the football fraternity expected to see Magents play in the DSTV Premiership very soon. This is because of the qualities he still possesses.
At 35 years old, Jele still feels like he has a lot to offer in the PSL. This is what led to his departure with Pirates.
Dr Irvin Khoza felt that the best way to move forward would be to offer him a role in the coaching staff of the team. However, he felt that he could still contribute to the playing team.
“A lot of teams have approached him, but what they have been offering him is something that doesn’t sit well with him.,” a source close to the player told Phakaaathi.
“They know that he is one of the best defenders in the country and he has achieved a lot, but they take him for granted.
“Happy wants to sign for a team that will value and respect him as a player and what he has accomplished. And he is one of the top professionals in the PSL, a lot of young and old players will tell you that about him.
“So, these teams that have been coming for his signature are not serious because what they are putting on the table is really low for a player of his calibre.” The source concluded.
Fans of his are still waiting to see him grace the football pitch once again. Happy Jele Will Wait for The Right Team Before Signing!
