He told Phakaaathi on Tuesday morning that his performances have attracted interest from Premiership teams.

“I have been talking to some people. There are a few clubs who have shown interest in me but I have told them to wait.

“I want to focus all my energy and efforts into the final as a way to say thank you to this club’s management and coach Dan Malesela for all they have done for me. I will only talk to them after the final. But yes, I will probably not be here next season as I will be playing in the Premiership,” said the former Chippa United player.
